GLAD TO BE CARRIED TO FULL TERM.

ICHEOKU says another lucky one that survived the abortionist's pincers from the over 360,000 unlucky ones that get flushed out each year. May God help us all have a better resolution about unwanted pregnancies.

IPOB NNAMDI KANU: A BRITISH CITIZEN ABDUCTED BY THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT!

ICHEOKU says he is a British citizen leading the effort to free the people of Biafra from the clutches of the feudalistic Fulani controlled Northern Nigeria. Now, he is missing following the raid of his country home by the Fulani Army of Northern Nigeria. ICHEOKU says President Muhammadu Buhari led Nigerian government sponsored abductions and murders is on the increase and you wonder what it will take the international community to call him to order.

JUST SAY NO TO KNEELING: IT IS UN-AMERICAN.

ICHEOKU says from being disrespectful to the flag to being unappreciative of the services of the military to overall being anti America; NFL players must learn to check their political activism outside the stadiums. They must not kneel on our dime. ICHEOKU supports the president 1000% on this and hereby calls on every player to respect the sensibilities of the many differently opined fans who paid to watch a game and not to be made mad by their personal political agenda.

IPOB: NOT A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION - USA

“The United States Government is strongly committed to Nigeria’s unity. Important political and economic issues affecting the Nigerian people, such as the allocation of resources, are worthwhile topics for respectful debate in a democracy. Within the context of unity, we encourage all Nigerians to support a de-escalation of tensions and peaceful resolution of grievances. The Indigenous People of Biafra is not a terrorist organization under US law.” - Russell Brooks,United States of America.

BIAFRA CANNOT BE WISHED AWAY BY THE FULANI/HAUSAS

ROCKET MAN; ON A SUICIDE MISSION.

"The United States has great strength and patience, but if it is forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea. Rocket Man is on a suicide mission for himself and for his regime. The United States is ready, willing and able, but hopefully this will not be necessary. That’s what the United Nations is all about; that’s what the United Nations is for. Let’s see how they do." - PDJT

DONATE TODAY TO HELP REBUILD LIVES!

ICHEOKU says the Red Cross does one heck of a good job going to the assistance of the needy; so in these times of great need, occasioned by so many hurricanes, flooding and earthquake, show that you really care, donate to help the victims rebuild their wrecked lives. Remember that the Almighty rewards a cheerful giver.

HILLARY CLINTON LOST THE ELECTION - CHARLES SCHUMER

"When you lose to somebody who has a 40 percent popularity, you don’t blame other things — Comey, Russia — you blame yourself. So what did we do wrong? People didn’t know what we stood for, just that we were against Trump. And still believe that." - Senator Charles Schumer, Senior Senator from the State of New York and Democratic Minority Leader in the Senate. ICHEOKU says the statement spoke volume and it spoke for itself. Finally it seems the Democrats have finally turned the corner and are now ready to face up to their abysmal performance in the last presidential election by acknowledging that the American people indeed choose Trump over their Hillary Clinton. Thankfully, they will also now rest their "Russians Did It" cockamamie and find a message they can present to the people and for the good of the country.. Time to move the process forward is now as American people did not buy into the crap of a Russian collusion which they tried unsuccessfully to sell to them.

North Korea PUT ON NOTICE

"North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States. They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen. As I said, they will be met with the fire and fury and, frankly, power." - President Donald John Trump. ICHEOKU says the Michelin Tire midget at Pyongyang is definitely courting trouble and messing with the wrong man. He probably thinks Barack Obama the redline president is still in office; but unbeknownst to him there is a new sheriff in town and his name is Donald John Trump and he does not mess around. Hopefully China can rein in the little man before he commits mass suicide with his North Korean people.

NORTH KOREA: TOTAL ANNIHILATION NOW ON THE TABLE.

ICHEOKU says once again the diminutive midget of Pyongyang has been advised to heed the resolution of the United Nations firm stand against his continuing provocations; and that the total wiping out of his North Korea is now an option should he force the hands of the United States of American military. In a statement by the Defense Secretary Jim Maddog Mattis over its latest nuclear test, the secretary said “Our commitment among the allies are ironclad. Any threat to the United States or its territories, including Guam, or our allies will be met with a massive military response, a response both effective and overwhelming. We are not looking to the total annihilation of a country, namely North Korea, but as I said, we have many options to do so.” ICHEOKU says does not really know the joker that guy has, but whatever it is will likely very soon be forced out. The world including ICHEOKU is waiting and watching.

BIAFRA EXIT FROM NIGERIA: A CALL TO DUTY

ICHEOKU says the time has come and the time is now for the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra to be allowed to choose their self governance and exit from Nigeria going forward.. A referendum on the future of Biafra is a legitimate demand of the people and it is their right to so do. The people of the Nation of Biafra want to go their own way because of the hostilities from other member nations of Nigeria. Let the United Nations order a referendum and let the people decide their own Biafraexit.

PDJT ISSUES A VERDICT ON ISLAMIST TERRORISTS

"There can be no coexistence with this violence. There can be no tolerating it, no accepting it, no excusing it, and no ignoring it. Every time a terrorist murders an innocent person and falsely invokes the name of God, it should be an insult to every person of faith. Terrorists do not worship God; they worship death. If we do not act against this organized terror, then we know what will happen and what will be the end result. Terrorism's devastation of life will continue to spread, peaceful societies will become engulfed by violence, and the futures of many generations will be sadly squandered. If we do not stand in uniform condemnation of this killing, then not only will we be judged by our people, not only will we be judged by history, but we will be judged by God." - President Donald John Trump.

BBOB: BRING BACK OUR BIAFRA

ICHEOKU says it is worth fighting for, self determination and it is not a crime for a people to aspire for self governance. Indigenous Peoples of Biafra are marching forward and hopefully they will soon get to the promised land. Viva Biafra.

#BringBackOurBiafra.

"When two raging fires meet together, they do consume the thing that feeds their fury. Though little fire grows great with little wind, yet extreme gusts do blow out fire." - William Shakespeare, The Taming of the Shrew

WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE - STEVE JOBS

“I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. Memories precipitated by love is the only true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. The most expensive bed in the world is the sick bed. You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – Life. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.” - SJ

EVIL CANNOT BE TRULY DESTROYED.

"The threat of evil is ever present. We can contain it as long as we stay vigilant, but it can never truly be destroyed. - Lorraine Warren (Annabelle, the movie)

ONLY THE POOR WISH THEY HAD STUFF?

“I’m not that interested in material things. As long as I find a good bed that I can sleep in, that’s enough.” - Nicolas Berggruem, the homeless billionaire.

MULLAH HAMID KARZAI, NOT A GOOD AND TRUSTED PARTNER FOR VICTORY?

Icheoku would not have bothered or even believed this story except that the man in Kabul has lately been behaving badly; albeit in a treacherous manner and thumbing his nose at the West? The West whose blood and treasure made it possible in the first place for him to be enjoying office as president of Afghanistan; he is now obtrusively disparaging?

Now he has refused to remain presidential and diplomatic in discussing matters of disagreement with the world including the United Nations and America? Instead, he is running his mouth like a street urchin discussing disagreements he felt he have with the past elections in his country on the pages of newspapers and other media; accusing the West of rigging the elections? And raving the tempo of his political disputation with the West one decibel further, President Hamid Karzaihave threatened to join the Taliban? Were today April 1st, Icheoku would have waved it off as an April Fool's joke; but hey today is April 6th, and this is not such a joke or any other; and like in the Mayor of Casterbridge, this otherwise sick joke is now too often that someone needs to call it off and immediately.

According to the narrative, President Hamid Karzai does not want to combat corruption, reform the electoral laws or seriously reach out to Taliban insurgents towards obtaining a lasting peace in Afghanistan; and would rather join the Taliban than do this if pushed any further? Icheokusays, now the international community knows where the heart of President Hamid Karzai really lies, - with the people who oppose girls' education, beat up women for the simplest reason of leaving their houses without a male chaperon, object to women's participation in any public affairs including politics, and whose very strict interpretation of conservative Islamic and tribal laws highly short-changes women of Afghanistan. This is the man running Afghanistan and on whose behalf America and the world have invested so much in blood and treasure only to get this treachery in return? For the fact that he even mouthed the abominable words is by itself sufficient to withdraw every and all support he is directly getting from the West and have him removed from office or at worst, encourage the return of the Talibans to power?

How dare President Hamid Karzai even entertain this idea of joining the Taliban, whether as a rude joke or direct empty threat to have his way? How can a president of a country threaten to join the enemy of the country for which so much have been lost trying to over-run? Icheoku says, such a statement of intent by President Hamid Karzai of Afghanistan is dangerous and capable of demoralizing the brave men and women daily putting their lives on the line to protect and save Afghanistan from a catastrophic ruin! Such statement is capable of forcing them to question the essence of their mission and to ask, what then is the use since the man they are helping to sustain in office have no scruples sleeping with the enemy and in a heart-beat?

Is it possible that President Hamid Karzai have been bought over by Ahmanejad's Tehran and is now acting a script of Tehran in showing disrespect to America? Does the West still have a strong and reliable partner in a man who would have Ahmadejad come into his country to harangue the United States, accusing it of a sundry list of things while the same United States is sweating to give Afghans a country where they can live freely? President Hamid Karzai's utterance is unacceptable and he should be made to recant same and unconditionally; failing which his government should be allowed to just fall and make way for a more effective partner to emerge. If it means getting rid of him, so be it; but it does not make sense that this disguised 'Mullah' should be allowed to continue running his mouth in this way, disparaging the world and rubbishing all our effort at sustaining his government and helping his country to survive. His threat to join forces with the enemy Taliban is simply put, treasonable; and he should be made to pay a prize? He is no longer a reliable partner for victory or the long term mission-objective in Afghanistan and should therefore be let go!

It is instructive to note that America and its allies hand-picked this previously unknown quantum, nervous, erratic and unpredictable president, to lead Afghanistan after the fall of the Taliban nearly nine years ago and he just began his election-fraud tainted second five-year term only four months ago.Icheoku says, away with Mullah Hamid Karzai!

ICHEOKU says once again President Donald John Trump has demonstrated the doer and not the talker in him, regarding his love for women. The president believes in equal opportunity for all and has been empowering women, one woman at a time. Now he has nominated Kirstjen Nielsen as the new Secretary of Homeland Security department. ICHEOKU says congratulations to Kirstjen Nielsen on her well deserved appointment being eminently qualified for the position; and also to President Donald John Trump for making the appointment. Kirstjen Nielsen will be the second woman to hold the position since it was established following 9/11, coming after the trail blazing Janet Napolitano, Best of luck Kirstjen.

HARVEY WEINSTEIN: HE FELL HARD.

ICHEOKU says his company fired him; his wife left him; his friends including Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama denounced his act as incomprehensible. Now his whole world has unraveled before his eyes; begging the question what use is all these earthly pursuits, including fame and wealth, if all of them could so easily fly away in a splitting second. The preacher in Ecclesiastes 1:2 was right indeed that all is vanity.

HARVEY WEINSTEIN: FIRED!

ICHEOKU says the company which he founded with his brother Weinstein LLC has parted ways with the sexual pervert; hoping to stem the bleeding caused by his many decades of sexual escapades and perversion against so many Hollywood women. ICHEOKU says hopefully his victims will go after the company for covering up for him, in the many years of using his power and influence to have his way among so many unwilling women who saw yielding to his desires as the only pathway to getting a foothold into Hollywood, which he partly controlled. ICHEOKU says definitely a good first step.

JALAL TALABANI IS DEAD

TRUMP, WIRETAPPED!

ICHEOKU says despite the initial attempt by the Washington Swamp establishment to suppress the evidence, at last it has come to the open that then Presidential candidate Donald John Trump was right when he said that his campaign was wiretapped. Yes indeed, the Obama administration placed wiretap on then Trump's campaign chairman Paul Manafort.

PRESIDENT BUHARI ADDRESSES THE United Nations

ICHEOKU says President Muhammadu Buhari of Nigeria addressed the United Nations 72nd General Assembly. He called for a delegation of the United Nations Security Council to be sent to North Korea to help dissuade the country from its Nuclear weaponry pursuit. According to the Nigerian president, "The most pressing threat to international peace and security today is the accelerated nuclear weapons development program by North Korea. Since the Cuban missile crisis of 1962, we have never come so close to the threat of nuclear war as we have now. All necessary pressure and diplomatic efforts must be brought to bear on North Korea to accept peaceful resolution of the crisis. As Hiroshima and Nagasaki painfully remind us, if we fail, the catastrophic and devastating human loss and environmental degradation cannot be imagined. Mr President, Nigeria proposes a strong UN delegation to urgently engage the North Korean Leader. The delegation, led by the Security Council, should include members from all the regions." ICHEOKU agrees that the president made common sense in the issue of a delegation to Pyongyang.

CASSINI MEETS A FIERY END.

ICHEOKU says after about 5 billion miles spent orbiting Saturn, NASA pulled the plug and killed Cassini. ICHEOKU says may that super machine, made by super humans, now enjoy a super rest.

ICHEOKU says continuing his trend of empowering women, President Donald John Trump has appointed yet another women into a high level position.

ICHEOKU says his days of con is now finally over as his reign has been brought to an end with a 20 years prison sentence for the rape of two women.

GORKA FIRED!

ICHEOKU says the ongoing head roll in the White House continues as Deputy Assistant to the president Dr Sebastine Gorka becomes the latest victim. He was fired today August 25th, 2017 by the new Chief of Staff General Kerry who is trying to streamline the operations of the White House. Gorka was a lieutenant of the also previously fired former chief strategist Steve Bannon, now practically ridding the White House of that band of brothers from the right. Hopefully the White House can become more functional and less divisive now; geared towards prosecuting the Make America Great Again agenda. So long Gorka.

WHAT HAPPENED: A BOOK OF DISTORTIONS

SHE WANTS PRESIDENT TRUMP KILLED!

Her name is Maria Chappelle-Nadal, a democrat from the State of Missouri, who represents District 14 in the States Senate.

So sad!

Together lets help President Donald John Trump in his quest to Make America Great Again and for everyone. Salute

NORTH KOREA: YOU ARE SERVED!

"The DPRK should cease any consideration of actions that would lead to the end of its regime and the destruction of its people." - General James Maddog Mattis

NORTH KOREA SANCTIONED

ICHEOKU says but will the Michelin Tire man in Pyongyang bulge? Thats the million dollar question as the world awaits the effect of the latest world sanction that has been placed on North Korea and its diminutive leader, Kim Jung Un. ICHEOKU can't wait to see if this sanction successfully averts the looming war.

REINCE PRIEBUS FIRED!

ICHEOKU says the no nonsense, result orientated and driven 45th President of the United States of America, Donald John Trump, has let go his Chief of Staff, Reince Priebus. A man who believes in getting results seems to have had it with the lack of any legislative accomplishments in the last six months and had to rejig his White House staff. Reince Priebus was immediately replaced with General John F. Kelly, former Secretary of Homeland Security. ICHEOKU wishes Reince well and says hello welcome the people's general and hopefully he will bring order and efficiency to a White House that seems to have so many directors, none of which wants to submit to any other authority except the president. The millions of irredeemable deplorables of which ICHEOKU is a proud member watches with great expectation.

JUSTIN BIEBER FINDS JESUS, ABANDONS THE WORLD.

ICHEOKU says like they say, he has been captured by the Holy Ghost and as Christ latest ambassador, he will save a lot of lives for Jesus. The Canadian born superstar, as a result, has cancelled all his scheduled tours and said he will devote his time working hard towards getting good grades in God's book of judgment. ICHEOKU says with the so many suicides among entertainers and musicians, overachievers, who seemed to have become lonely and bored after reaching their peak, taking shelter under Jesus is a welcome life saving decision. ICHEOKU wishes Mr Bieber all the best in his epiphany to find meaning in life.

MCCAIN RETURNED FOR A CRUCIAL VOTE

ICHEOKU says the senior Senator from the great state of Arizona returned to Washington DC to cast a crucial vote to move the process forward.

ICHEOKU commends McCain's spirit and hereby wish him Gods speed in his recovery. Salute

A BETTER DEAL: A NEW MESSAGE BY DEMOCRATS.

ICHEOKU says it is not about sloganeering, but performance. So as the party of sore losers are out again dangling a carrot to the American people, lets hope they will provide same. Yes, they spent a better half of the year running a narrative which they know is false, claiming a Russian collusion. Now their lie have fallen flat and up to another gimmickry they go. Yes, they want to push another reset button, but this time not with Russia. It is with their own conscience. ICHEOKU wishes them well and says THE RUSSIANS DID IT nonsense was indeed very corrosive to their brand; which they pushed too far and for too long without any effect.

A NEW PRESS SECRETARY FOR THE WHITE HOUSE

ICHEOKU says she is Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who replaces former Press Secretary Sean Spicer who reigned his office.

ICHEOKU wishes the new secretary all the best in her new assignment. Congratulations Sarah.

The verdict is universal that the beautiful Melania is indeed beautiful and vivacious too. Americans are pleased to have her representing the country in her capacity as the First Lady

BRAZILIAN LULA SENT TO PRISON FOR CORRUPTION

ICHEOKU says former Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva is going to prison for corruption. A Brazilian court found him guilty of taking bribes while in office and he will be spending about ten years in prison barring a successful appeal. ICHEOKU wishes Nigerians could similarly too send their kleptomaniac past leaders to prison for wanton corruption and vagrant abuse of office. Way to go Brazilians in holding your corrupt past leaders accountable.

ISIS LEADER ABUBAKAR EL BAGHDADI KILLED?

ICHEOKU says although without a body to conclusively determine that he has been killed, the Russians claim that the leader of ISIS caliphate Abubaka el Baghdadi was killed in an airstrike has been confirmed by a Syrian Observatory group. ICHEOKU says may he now proceed to paradise to claim his 70 virgins and then populate a caliphate all by himself.

MAITAMA SULE DEAD AT 88

ICHEOKU says congratulations to Mark Zuckerberg and his Team Facebook for achieving such a huge feat within a very short time of their existence.

UBER CEO TRAVIS KALANICK FORCED OUT.

ICHEOKU says good riddance as he was about taking down the company he took up to a global disruptor and forced so many other ride providing services out of business including many Taxi drivers and companies. Travis Kalanick made so many overtures to remain but the shareholders rebuffed him and demanded that he resign immediately and today, he is no longer the chief executive officer of the ride sharing company. ICHEOKU hopes Uber will find a more acceptable way to do business that is not its current plantation mentality based attitude.

CARRIE FISHER, A JUNKIE

ICHEOKU says a cocktail of illicit drugs were found in her system, leading to some opinion that she probably died of drug overdose induced heart attack. Drugs are not good for anyone; they kill.

HELMUT KOHL, DEAD AT 87

ICHEOKU says he was a German statesman, one of the longest serving Chancellor and presided over West and East Germany unification and he was an influential figure in Europe. Former Chancellor of Germany, Helmut Kohl died of old age related infirmities. He was 87 years old. May his soul now rest. Adieu Kohl.

UPS FACILITY SHOOTING LEAVES FOUR DEAD

ICHEOKU says it used to be the Post Offices culminating in the word going postal; but today the United Parcel Service is reeling under a disgruntled and aggrieved worker's turning the gun on his fellow employees, killing three of them before turning the gun on himself, bringing the total number of dead UPS workers to four. Yes, work place violence is a common happenstance in America, resulting from over stressed and overworked workers. Jimmy Lam was the suicidal gunman at San Francisco UPS facility. May the souls of the dead now rest.

ADNAN KHASOGGI: MONEY PERSONIFIED

“What did I do wrong? Nothing. I behaved unethically, for ethical reasons.” - Adnan Khashoggi, a personification of money.

SANYA RICHARD-ROSS, A BABY KILLER

ICHEOKU says she aborted her baby just to go to an Olympics and compete for a piece of metal called medal? What a demeaning of human life because as far as she was concerned, the baby's life is worth too little compared to her medal. Pitiful

REALITY WINNER IS THE LEAKER

ICHEOKU says the proverbial inside rat which has been telling other outside rats that there is a treasure trove of fish inside the house. Now one of the leakers of classified documents has been been busted.

GAME 2: WARRIORS BEATS CAVALIERS

ICHEOKU says Golden State Warriors beats Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 2 of NBA finals 132 to 113. With two game wins in their kitty it is off to Cleveland on Wednesday for Game 3. ICHEOKU wishes the Warriors God's speed in their quest to bring home the championship to California. Go Warriors.

PARIS CLIMATE ACCORD, BOOTED.

"I was elected to represent the citizens of Pittsburgh, not Paris." With those words the peoples' President of America, Donald John Trump, in keeping with his campaign promise, just pulled America out of the Paris Climate Accord. ICHEOKU says if only the rest of the world can take care of their environmental issues including clean air, clean water, less polluted navigable waters and bring it to par with America's, may be the environmental concerns would be solved without a need for an accord which is skewed heavily against America. ICHEOKU says the world is being smart by half in trying to play catch up to America by surreptitiously delaying America's progress with some accord while the rest of the world tries to catch up with it; otherwise why is China and India not similarly bound. ICHEOKU says congratulations to PDJT for manning up and courageously following through with his promise to always protect America's interest. Salute.

TIGER WODS BUSTED FOR DUI

ICHEOKU says the fact that he refused a sobriety test says it all. It tells a lot about the lucidity state of the former legendary golfer who was busted in Florida for driving under the influence. ICHEOKU therefore is not buying into the after the fact prepared statement that alcohol was not involved; that it was only mixed medications. Query: if it was not alcohol induced impairment, why did he refuse an on the spot sobriety test including a requested breathalyzer, leading to his being held over for close to five hours at the station. ICHEOKU hopes that he gets all the help he needs and find some other more acceptable ways of dealing with whatever it is that he is going through. The fact that he has not fully recovered, emotionally and psychologically, ever since his divorce from his former wife, Elin Nordegren, resulting in his plummet from his formerly Olympian heights in golf, is self evident. The world is waiting and watching to see if this is the end for the former golf great or it is just another bump on the road for a man who has been going down hill for sometime now.

MANUEL NORIEGA, DEAD AT 83

ICHEOKU says former Panamanian strongman or rather dictator Manuel Noriega has died. He died following complications from brain tumor surgery. He was 83 years old. May his soul rest. Adieu Noriega.

ZBIGNIEW BRZEZINSKI, DEAD AT 89.

ICHEOKU says he was President Jimmy Carter's National Security Adviser. May his soul rest. Adieu Zinski.

PDJT ISSUES MARCHING ORDERS AGAINST ISLAMIST EXTREMISTS

"Drive them out. Drive them out of your places of worship. Drive them out of your communities. Drive them out of your holy land. And drive them out of this earth." ICHEOKU says couldn't agree more with the peoples' president Donald John Trump on the need to completely wipe these urchins out of this planet.

ROBERT MUELLER: SPECIAL COUNSEL FOR TRUMP RUSSIAN CONNECTION

ICHEOKU says hopefully the nearing schizophrenic far left liberals will accept whatever conclusions and findings reached by this particular counsel whose reputation is uncompromising candor. He who has nothing to hide fears no accusation and President Donald John Trump has no problem with the appointment. and neither does ICHEOKU. Therefore, ICHEOKU says nothing but a speedy investigation is expected, provided it is thorough and fair so that the president can continue governing and making America great again without all these needless distractions. However, another special counsel should be appointed to review Hillary Clinton's emailgate in the interest of fairness.

KARA McCULLOUGH IS MISS USA 2017

ICHEOKU says she is beauty and brain combined and her crown rightly earned. ICHEOKU says congratulations Kara and may your reign be scandal free. Salute

PRESIDENT AND FIRST LADY OF FRANCE, THE MACRON

ICHEOKU says behold the newly elected President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte Macron. That the French people voted him to lead them tells a lot about the French and their freewheeling attitude of not holding people, especially their politicians and public figures, accountable. But hey, it is the French and they usually keep their things Frenchy. Congratulations President and First Lady Macron.

LE PEN: THE ANSWER TO FRANCE PROBLEMS, VOTE RIGHT.

ICHEOKU says the French must vote right and vote to take their country back. Marine Le Pen is the answer to the question how could France recover its glory. Save France today vote Madame Le Pen.

ALEX HERNANDEZ COMMITS SUICIDE

ICHEOKU says sometimes fame is a curse. Now Alex Hernandez, a former NFL player with the New England Patriots, serving life for his murder conviction, could not take the price of fame anymore and decided to end it. He forged a noose with his bed sheet and in went his head, and strangled himself to death. ICHEOKU says sometimes what we wish we had might not turn out to be good for us afterall. May his soul rest.

MOAB, THE MOTHER OF ALL BOMBS

ICHEOKU says if not for the costliness viz a viz the kill, then a good weapon it is. But to expend a $50 million weapon to just kill a few hundreds does not make great economic sense, not at all. But hey, it is a weapon and in the area of weaponry, such cost analysis does not usually have a say. A Mobile Ordinance Air Bust bomb honing down on its target in the mountains of Afghanistan.

OMAROSA SAYS I DO, FOR RICH OR RICHER.

ICHEOKU says the apprentice-made famous Omarosa Manigault, 43, and John Allen Newman, 61 are now husband and wife; provided according to Omarosa poverty never steps into their home. ICHEOKU wishes the couple happy married life. Congratulations Oma and Allen.

SWEDEN TERRORIST TRUCK ATTACK

ICHEOKU says if only they had hearkened to then candidate Donald Trump alert that Sweden is gradually losing their country to Islamist terrorism, may be they would have been more guarded.

THE FACE OF A KILLER, ADAM PURINTON

Icheoku says and he lost his mind, went into a pub and an Indian software engineer was shot to death. Another cuckoo land American in Olathe Kansas.

PDJT BOYCOTS CORRESPONDENTS DINNER.

Icheoku says can there truly be a White House Correspondents dinner without the chief host, the president? Now that the president is not attending, Icheoku wonders if indeed the dinner will still hold or will those correspondents so called lead a delegation of apologists to the president to pledge to report news and not made up ones. But hey, fake news correspondents might as well tough it out without the president and host a fake correspondents dinner,

H.R. McMASTER, THE NEW NSA

Icheoku says finally a successor to General Mike Flynn has been named. He is Lt General Herbert Raymond "H. R." McMaster. Icheoku says hopefully the desperate far left anarchists will let him be as he joins President Donald John Trump to help reposition America and make America Great Again.

CNN: A VERY FAKE NEWS CHANNEL

Icheoku says when one thinks that just being a fake news purveyor was more than enough stigma, the Clinton News Network aka CNN has been graduated to a Very Fake News Channel, courtesy of the peoples President Donald John Trump.

PRESIDENT DJT AND FIRST LADY MEL..

Icheoku says the president took the First Lady to the ball, the inauguration ball, that is; and they looked a million dollar each. Icheoku says congratulations President Donald and First Lady Melanie Trump on your successful inauguration.

HILLARY CLINTON, RUEFUL?

Icheoku says she must not be a happy camper, watching from the sidelines instead of being the center of attention, sworn in as the first female president of America. Hillary Clinton must be wondering if only she had leveled with the American people; came clean with them and never had to delete and bleach wash 33,000 emails and tried to cover it up. Icheoku says she can blame the Russians all she wants, but she needs to look into the mirror to see a victim of self-destruct who inflicted on herself a mortal political injury. Good enough she soldiered to the inauguration but she will never recover nor forget the presidency that once again eluded her due to her own fault.

PROJECT MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN BEGINS.

Michael E. Horowitz, the Justice Department Inspector General said he will review how the FBI and Justice Department handled certain aspects of the Hillary Clinton email investigation; including FBI Director James Comey's news conference in July and his two letters to lawmakers in late October and early November. Icheoku says why pick and choose what to review; instead just review all the gaddam Hillary Clinton's emails including why she was not indicted following the case made for her indictment by the FBI. Only a total review will assure Americans that this is not part of the witch-hunt to diminish Donald Trump's presidential election victory as well as his coming presidency. Icheoku says Americans should demand all or nothing; it is either the IG reviews everything or nothing at all.

A MEDAL FOR JOE BIDEN

Icheoku says a teary eyed Vice President Joe Biden was decorated with a Presidential Medal of Freedom by his similarly outgoing boss President Barack Hussein Obama. What a final farewell parting gift for Joey, the boy from Scranton; who apparently have lost touch with his working class roots and could not deliver the working class Ross Belt Americans votes to Hillary Clinton. Anyway, his being Joe is enough to win him a presidential medal. Icheoku says congratulations Joey.

Icheoku says all the best to the outgoing president who lost many fans including Icheoku. He lost Icheoku when he drew a redline in the sand for Syria's Bashir Assad and walked away and secondly for killing African King Moummar Gaddafi.

RUSSIAN HACK OF ELECTION, NO SMOKING GUN REVEALED.

“While Russia, China, other countries, outside groups and people are consistently trying to break through the cyber infrastructure of our governmental institutions, businesses and organizations including the Democrat National Committee, there was absolutely no effect on the outcome of the election including the fact that there was no tampering whatsoever with voting machines. There were attempts to hack the Republican National Committee, but the RNC had strong hacking defenses and the hackers were unsuccessful. - PE Donald John Trump.

FROM A GRATEFUL PEOTUS TO A BELOVED NATION

Happy New Year 2017, the year of Trump.

RUSSIAN SANCTIONS, DOES PUTIN CARE?

Icheoku says if advising Tzar Vladimir Putin will suggest he holds off any retaliatory fire and give PE DJT chance to first review before acting. The world does not need all these added tension to its already plate-full of problems. Like Rodney King said, can't we all just get along in this world, including America with the Russians?

CARRIE FISHER, DEAD AT 60

Icheoku says 2016 has refused to simply go away and has continued to claim more and more lives. The latest is Carrie Fisher, Princess Leia in the Star Wars Franchise. Carrie died of massive heart attack. She was 60 years old. May her soul Rest In Peace.

George Michael was gay and could have contracted the AIDS or died of drug overdose; admitted, none of which has been confirmed as the cause of his death.

TRUMP WINS ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTES 304 TO CLINTON'S 233

GERMAN TERRORIST ATTACKS, HOLD ANGELA MERKLE RESPONSIBLE

GHOST-SHIP FIRE IN OAKLAND CLAIMS SO MANY LIVES.

Icheoku says sometimes there is really something in a name. In Oakland California USA, an artists commune called Ghost-Ship was engulfed in an inferno which killed 36 people. The name seems to have brought the incident about. Unfortunately, baring the building being pulled down, the ghosts of the dead will find a new dwelling in the building and thereby making it truly a ghost abode. Icheoku says rest in peace the departed.

A 'MAD DOG' TO THE RESCUE.

Icheoku says it is about time America barked and bite too. No one can ensure this more than the mad dog himself, General James Mattis, who is now the Secretary of Defense designate. Icheoku says congratulations.

GAMBIA HAS A NEW PRESIDENT, BARROW.

Icheoku says The Gambia has elected a new president, Adama Barrow. He defeated incumbent President Yahya Jammeh in an election considered to be truly fair. The outgoing president has also conceded defeat which in itself is a very good sign coming from a continent that has been ruined by sit tight presidents. Icheoku says congratulations to both the incoming and outgoing for their victory and statesmanship respectively.

COL ABRAMS PASSES ON AT 67.

Icheoku says he was a dancehall and discotheque permanent fixture back in the day; but like all mortals, have now joined those who walked the land before him. Icheoku says rest in peace Colonel.

HILLARY CLINTON: AN AMERICAN REJECT IN DENIAL.

Icheoku says Ms Nasty Crooked Hillary Clinton is in denial and has refused to look into the mirror to see the actual reason why she lost starring back at her. First she blamed FBI's Comey letter to Congress; then Electoral college and now white women who did not gather around the first female presidential candidate for her loss. Icheoku says exactly what living a life of lie and being in denial looks like. Hopefully she will make a full recovery before this loss gets the better part of her, both body and mind.

JANET RENO, DEAD AT 78.

Icheoku says the former Attorney General of the United States of America under President Bill Clinton, who served between 1993 to 2001, has died. Janet Wood Reno, a known feminist and first woman to ever serve in that capacity, died of Parkinson related old age disease on November 7, 2016; one day shy of voting for her compatriot feminist Hillary Clinton. Icheoku says to Janet to say hi to David Koresh of Branch Davidian if you see him and apologize for the fiery roast that ended his life and that of his followers in Waco Texas. Adieu.

DONALD TRUMP, A GIANT KILLER

Icheoku says he has single handedly retired the two political families of America, the Bush and now the Clintons. Jeb fell victim to his masterstroke during the primaries and now he has rested Hillary Clinton with a resounding election victory. Icheoku says American people are grateful that finally this two albatross political families have been swiftly taken care or and out of American political landscape.

TUESDAY NOVEMBER 8, VOTE TRUMP

Icheoku says vote for something, vote Trump and help Make America Great Again.

WORLD SERIES 2016 CHAMPIONSHIP, CHICAGO CUBS WINS.

Icheoku says exactly what a miraculous comeback looks like. From being down 0 - 3, they came back to win the baseball championship finals 4 - 3. Icheoku says some good news for Trump's campaign as those Clevelanders would be so depressed to turn out to vote as Lebron James told them. Icheoku says congratulations Cubs, what a joyous victory after over a 100 years drought.

HUMA ABEDI DUMPED?

Icheoku says exactly what being thrown under the bus really looks like. Used and dumped and there goes the woman who once used to be like a second daughter to now one of my former staffer. Icheoku says what an irony life is.

DONNA BRAZILE CAUGHT CHEATING?

Icheoku says the Democratic Party women are full of twists and turns and are now irredeemably bonded in crookedness and corruption. The latest being Donna Brazile, the acting chairperson of the party who replaced the erstwhile chairperson who was forced to resign last summer for playing hanky-panky with party elections. Now Donna Brazile has been caught helping Hillary Clinton cheat during the primaries debates; but whether she will be asked to follow suit her predecessor Debbie Wasserman Shultz and also resign, the jury is still out. What a basket of corrupt and crooked cheaters but if only the basket weaver can weave one for her fellow crooked fellows.

IF SHE COULD DO THIS MUCH DAMAGE AS SECRETARY OF STATE, IMAGINE WHAT SHE WOULD AS PRESIDENT?

Icheoku says the idea is so frightening that it should better be left for the imagination than given a chance at becoming a reality. She did this much with a boss she answered to, imagine when she becomes the boss without anyone to answer to. America, we deserve better as a people, hence we must elect someone that is beyond reproach and above corruption. Vote Trump and help him drain the swamp.

FBI READY TO RIGHT THE WRONG, REOPENS INVESTIGATION

Icheoku says it is about time as justice denied is a justice wronged. There should not be two treatments for two Americans under the law. So it will be nice to get to the bottom of this email saga.

COLIN POWELL HAS NO SHAME

Icheoku says after his leaked emails and now this endorsement? Exactly the swamp a President Donald Trump pledged to dredge in Washington DC.

BENIN HAS A NEW OBA

Icheoku says the ancient Bini Kingdom in Edo State Nigeria has a new king. Omo N’Oba N’Edo Uku’ Akpolokpolo Ewuare 11 was crowned the 40th Oba of the Kingdom. Icheoku says may his reign bring better things to his kingdom. He shall live and thrive.

DONALD TRUMP, THE NEXT POTUS.

Icheoku says Americans will elect Donald Trump on November 8 to give the country a new direction - CHANGE.

DUTERTE'S PHILIPPINES DIVORCES AMERICA?

icheoku says what a complete renunciation of a knee jerk Obama's foreign policy where redlines are flagrantly violated without consequences. Now a spooked Philippines has ran over to China. Simply shameful.

UNITED NATIONS Secretary General DESIGNATE.

Icheoku says former Portuguese Prime Minister Antonio Guterres, 67, is the newly elected United Nations Secretary General. He will succeed Bakin Moon on January 1, 2017. Icheoku says congratulations to the diplomat and hopefully he will begin to find solutions to the so many world problems including so many atrocious wars.

CROOKED HILLARY CLINTON, A JANUS WITH TWO FACES.

Icheoku says she has two personas - one which she wears in public and the other which she wears when in the privacy of her donor class and special interests. In the former, she pretends to be a compassionate Mother Theresa and in the latter her true self emerges, disparaging every American and compartmentalizing them into various baskets, from deplorables to basement dwellers to super predators. Now it has also emerged that privately Crooked Hillary Clinton is for OPEN BORDERS and FREE TRADE as well as for Bankers to reform banks. Icheoku says Crooked Hillary Clinton, simply too dangerous for America and cannot be trusted with the presidency. What a woman that is too greedy for power that she can say and do anything to grab power.

ROD 'THRILLER' TEMPERTON IS DEAD.

Icheoku says the man who penned Thriller for Michael Jackson is dead. Rod Temperton died of cancer, aged 66. He rose from a frozen fish factory worker to prominence, writing so many great hits including Thriller, Off The Wall, Rock With You, Give Me The Night, Sweet Freedom, Always & Forever, Boogie Nights etc. Two of his many client-artists are Donna Summer and Mariah Carey. A recluse of some sort who hates the limelight and who once said "he watches telly, catch up the news and maybe the phone will ring" in response to what occupies his time when not writing songs. Icheoku says rest in peace Mr Thriller and please say hi to MJ.

ISRAELI PERES, DEAD AT 93.

Icheoku says former Israeli president Shimon Peres is dead; died of old age related infirmities manifested as stroke. He was 93 years old. Icheoku says hopefully, alongside Yitzhak Rabin, Ariel Sharon and Yaser Arafat, they will continue to mediate the Middle East Peace Process. Rest in peace, Shalom.

AMERICA UNDER TERRORISTS ATTACKS?

Icheoku says three attacks in one day - one in New Jersey, one in New York and another one in Minnesota. Icheoku says what is exactly going on America? Only Donald Trump will end all these nonsense immigration that is not doing much to isolate and exclude Muslim terrorists.

BLEACH-WASHED EMAILS?

Icheoku says Crooked Hillary Clinton has repeatedly claimed that there is no smoking gun evidence of her complicity or corrupt enrichment from her deleted classified emails. In answer, Icheoku says although there may not be smoking gun but there are certainly some evidence of smoking coincidences.

CROOKED HILLARY CLINTON, DOUBLE VISIONED?

Icheoku says may be Americans should come together and proclaim Hillary Clinton an honorary president for a day and let her go take care of her health. It seems her quest for the presidency is taking needless toll on her and she does not know when to throw in the towel.

MOTHER TERESA NOW A SAINT, HURRAY.

Icheoku says praying through Mother Teresa can now speedily answer your prayers as she is now canonized saint of the Catholic Church. Mother Teresa is now Saint Teresa of Calcutta. Icheoku says all hail the saintly saint who has been described as an epitome of real christianity. According to one fan, "Teresa’s life had set a unique example to the world. She practiced Christianity. The majority of Christians only spend their time talking about it.” Icheoku says well said.

DILMA ROUSSEFF REMOVED.

Icheoku says former Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff stands impeached and is now removed as president, pronto.

JENNIFER LOPEZ JUMPS AGAIN?

Icheoku says unlucky and restless in love, Jenny from the block has once again dumped yet another boyfriend. At 47 and dating a 29 year old, one wonders what she expects from him. Casper Smart and J.LO has been dating since 2011. Icheoku says what exactly is Jennifer Lopez trying to prove or achieve by hopping through all these men, now six, who come through her swing doors. But hey, life is a bitch and she is certainly unlucky in love.

EARTHQUAKE IN ITALY LEAVES MANY DEAD.

SYRIAN BOY, A DISPLAY OF UNCANNY COURAGE.

Icheoku says what a five year old boy he really is that maintained his cool amidst a worst life experience any person could ever undergo. Omran Daqneesh, just 5-year-old, survived Aleppo bombing and instead of crying and wailing 'mommy mommy' like any other little five year old would, he was stoically brave and composed. Icheoku says what a remarkable little man of great courage.

USAIN BOLT, 9.8 SECONDS BOLT TO GOLD IN RIO

Icheoku says there is definitely something in a name afterall; and like a bolt of lightening, the Jamaican has once again done it. He wins yet another 100 meters race in Rio Olympics 2016. Icheoku says congratulations Usain.

RIO OLYMPICS 2016 BEGINS AFTER INITIAL HICCUPS?

Icheoku wishes the world gathered in Rio de Janeiro Brazil a successful hosting of the Olympiad

AMERICA MUST SAY NO TO SHARIA OF ANY KIND.

Icheoku says America's last bulwark to full blown sharia are men like this and a President Donald Trump leading decisively.

FATHER JACQUES HAMEL BEHEADED IN FRANCE BY ISIS

Icheoku says how many more lives would it take before the West realizes that Western culture and civilization is under threat by these murderous Islamists terrorists? Now they have beheaded a Reverend Father inside a church while he was celebrating a mass with the Eucharist, thus desecrating the Holy Church. From killing little innocent children to killing heavily pregnant mothers to now killing a priest. Icheoku says please somebody reassure Icheoku this is not now the new normal? Father Jacques Hamel was 80 years old. RIP.

DEBBIE WASSERMANN SHULTZ, AXED.

Icheoku says if Democratic Party chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Shultz could be forced to resign over the Democratic Party emails scandal, why not Hillary Clinton over her own emailgates scandal? Another evidence that there is one set of rule for the Clintons and another one for the rest of us.

CLINTON-KAINE, A LOSING TEAM DIMINISH AMERICA AGAIN.

Icheoku is still trying to understand the merits of the Tim Kaine choice for vice president; but so far, nothing outstanding and it does not appear any will materialize tomorrow. What a poor choice that brings nothing additional to the ticket, another evidence of Crooked Hillary's bad judgment credentials.

SEEKING SPANISH, WHY NOT JULIAN CASTRO?

Icheoku says Crooked Hillary Clinton slighted Hispanics by ignoring one of their rising star for a man who merely speaks Spanish.

RNC DAY 4, ENDS WITH A BANG

Icheoku says every American was pleased and impressed. Congratulations to RNC honchos as well as the presidential and vice presidential nominees Donald Trump and Mike Pence.

RNC CONVENTION DAY 3, PENCE EARNS HIS PIPS.

Icheoku says no wonder the quick assessing Donald Trump was able to see in him a viable vice president to work with. Icheoku, like many Trumpeters, is convinced that Mike Pence will help Donald Trump make America great again. Great speech Mike Pence delivered today at Cleveland. Congratulations.

RNC CONVENTION CLEVELAND 2016, DAY 2.

Icheoku says another wonderful day in Cleveland and it is all the way to the White House for the next president of the United States of America Donald Trump. Governor Christie strongly held the forte and Donald Trump Jr as well as Tiffany Trump also immensely pitched in.

COUP ATTEMPT IN TURKEY, STILL FLUIDY?

Icheoku says the attempted military putsch against the Sultan-President of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, appears shifty. It looks like it is not successful or it is being resisted by troops loyal to the Islamist president; who is trying to completely sharianize Turkey and turn it into an ultra Islamic Sharia Republic. Icheoku hopes that Turkish people can wrestle back their once beloved secular and free country from both those fundamentalist Islamists as represented in Erdogan as well as the military adventurists usurpers that are engaged in the current coup.

VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE ALERT.

Icheoku says the next president of the United States of America Donald John Trump will announce the person who will help him make America great again, his vice presidential candidate on Friday, July 15th 2016 by 11.00am. Icheoku hopes that this his first decision will meet the expectations of the American people who are rooting for the man who will make America great again.

POLAND WINS EURO 2016 WITHOUT RONALDO

Icheoku says congratulations to the Portuguese.

HILLARY CLINTON, NOT FIT TO BE PRESIDENT

DALLAS POLICE SHOOTINGS, 5 OFFICERS DEAD.

Icheoku says time to end the gun violence in America is now, enough.

UNDERSTANDING TRUMP, READ MATTHEW 21:12-13

Icheoku says it is only his patriotic zeal that is driving his engine to make America great again. Go Trump; Vote Trump and help make America great again.

GERMANY EKES A WIN OVER ITALY

Icheoku suddenly found self rooting for Germany in their quarter final match against Italy. Like the racists every person is, Icheoku's heart went out to Jerome Boateng after his handling of the ball within the eighteenth, gave Italy a penalty kick with which they leveled with Germany. Icheoku knew that he would have been chewed out by an otherwise racist world media, particularly those in Germany for costing Germany their berth in the semis finals. Luckily, the good Lord was equally watching and decided to help save the situation. In a never seen before several misses in penalty kicks, both countries missed three kicks until Germany scored to clinch victory and secure a place in the semi finals. Icheoku says congratulations to the Germans and bless your heart Boateng and please do not handle the ball again.

WAYNE ROONEY AND HIS ENGLISH SIDE HUMBLED BY BOYS OF REYKJAVIK.

Icheoku says Karma is a bitch and following their Brexit, England national team have been ousted from Euro 2016 championship. A little known soccer playing nation Iceland defeated the once world famous England 2 - 1 and thus sent the Wayne Rooney English side back to England. Their national coach Roy Hodgson resigned following the calamitous disaster and Icheoku as well as the world expects Wayne Rooney to do the same. At least he should follow the example of Argentine Lionel Messi and make way for another more capable and able leader to emerge. Congratulations Iceland.

COPA AMERICA 2016, MESSI FAILS AGAIN.

Icheoku says a tree never a forest makes; and so it happened again that the diminutive soccer maestro Lionel Messi could not lift the championship trophy for his country Argentina. Not only did he not score any goal during the game, but he also missed a penalty kick and you wonder if his country lost to Chile due to his own failures. A soccer championship finals that went into overtime without producing a winner and was decided in a 4 - 3 penalty kicks in favor of Chile. Icheoku says congratulations Chileans for your back to back championship wins.

BRITISH PM CAMERON, RESIGNS.

Icheoku says a functioning society, a Prime Minister falls on his sword for unsuccessfully leading the campaign to remain in European Union. Icheoku wishes him well as the wishes of the people prevails over every other thing. Thankfully Britain is not a third world country where leaders do not take responsibility for their failings, hence the transition and any fall out from this development will be well cushioned. Whatever happens, Britain will survive and will solider on among the comity of nations. So long Cam.

TYRONN LUE, DELIVERS CHAMPIONSHIP FOR CAVS.

Icheoku says his first time out as NBA coach and he returns home with a championship win. What a wonderful coach he is, Tyronn Lue of Cleveland Cavaliers. Icheoku says congratulations TL.

ORLANDO MASS MURDERER, GAY?

Icheoku says Omar Sadiq Mateen, the maniac who slaughtered 49 innocent Americans is himself a gay man, who was heavily conflicted about his sexuality. Latest available information has it that he frequents Pulse night club for dates and pickups; and you wonder if he was a jilted lover and decided to take it out on people he believed rejected him. Married in name only and for cultural acceptance but conflicted as to his sexual reality. What a maga dog this guy is that wrought this great havoc in Orlando.

OMAR MATEEN, THE FACE OF ORLANDO TERROR

Icheoku says Islamic terrorism must be named and shamed but only the president knows what is tying his lips from making these pronouncement. Rest in peace Pulse party revelers.

STEPHEN KESHI, DEAD AT 54.

Icheoku says awards winning former coach of Nigeria's national team Super Eagles, who won championship trophies both as a player and a coach, has died. Stephen Okechukwu Keshi died suddenly in what was an apparent heart attack in Nigeria. He was 54 years old. Icheoku says may his soul rest in peace and hopefully it was a natural causes and not diabolical. Adieu Keshi.

THE LEGEND TRANSMUTES.

Icheoku says may his boxing soul rest in peace. Mohammed Ali was 74years.

WARRIORS V. CAVALIERS NBA FINALS, ENCORE.

Icheoku hereby congratulates both the Western and Eastern Conferences champions, Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers; and as they meet again in a back to back NBA finals, Icheoku says may the better side win. Icheoku is somehow conflicted with both teams as one part of Icheoku roots for King James to deliver a title to Cleveland; while the other part roots for homie Warriors. Warriors won last 2015 and possibly might win again this 2016; but should Cavaliers win, it is going to be also good. Let the finals begin and let the fireworks explode.

GOOFY ELIZABETH WARREN, MISSING IN ACTION?

Icheoku says the wild eyed feminist from Massachusetts who recently forayed into the arena to take a cheap puck-shot at the people's prince, Donald Trump, has suddenly disappeared as she had appeared. Elizabeth Warren has gone the way of other Trump attackers and Hillary Clinton will follow suit. Go Trump; Vote Trump.

NRA ENDORSES TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT.

Icheoku says like NASCAR, the National Rifle Association has also endorsed Donald Trump for president of the United States of America. Icheoku says the more the merrier and hopefully they will help elect Trump and together, help make America great again.

CBS 60 MINUTES MORLEY SAFER, DEAD AT 84.

Icheoku says his death now brings to a close that iconic team that made 60 Minutes a very delightable show to watch every Sunday by 7.00pm. Morley now joins other previously departed 60 Minutes faithfuls Andy Looney, Bob Simons, Ed Bradley, Mike Wallace and Harry Radcliffe in the world beyond and hopefully they will still have their own version of 60 Minutes over there. RIP Morley.

EGYPTAIR FALLS OUT OF THE SKY.

Icheoku says Egyptair MS804 with 56 people and 10 crew members, enroute Cairo from Paris, fell out of the skies into the Mediterranean sea. Apparently there is no survivors and hopefully it is not terror related. What a tragic happenstance. Our hearts go out to the victims and their families.

PRESIDENT DILMA ROUSSEFF, SUSPENDED.

Icheoku says Brazillian senate has voted to begin impeachment process against President Dilma Rouseff, who now stands down now as president, suspended, pending the determination of the impeachment proceeding. She now follows in the footsteps of former President Fernando Collar de Mello who was similarly impeached from office in 1992. Hopefully Brazil will get its act together and resolve the political logjam before it takes a turn for the worse spiraling into a political turmoil. According to the suspended president, she is a "victim of great injustice."

PHILIPPINES HAS A NEW PRESIDENT, RODRIGO DIRTERTE

Icheoku says the foreboding of the things to come, a precursor to America's coming election, the people of Philippines have elected a bold and brash man as their next president. It is a testimony that chivalry is still alive and that strength as opposed to fine rhetorics is what people expect in a leader. Icheoku congratulates President-elect Rodrigo Dirterte and the people of Philippines on their election. Go Trump, Vote Trump and together lets make America great again.

PAUL RYAN TO BE CANTORED - SARAH PALIN

Icheoku says it is about time he paid a hefty price for daring to take sides in a dispute wherein he is an umpire. An adroit politic player should have stayed off the frail but not a Mitt Romney apologist eager to please his establishment backers. According to Sarah Palin, "His political career is over but for a miracle because he has so disrespected the will of the people, and as the leader of the GOP, the convention, certainly he is to remain neutral, and for him to already come out and say who he will not support is not a wise decision of his."

PAUL RYAN IN A BIND, SAYS NOT THERE YET?

Icheoku says he is part of the establishment politicians sweating so hard to stop Trump. He is a Congressman and has unsuccessfully ran for the Republican Party's presidential primaries in the past; he also once ran as vice presidential candidate of Mitt Romney and is currently the Speaker of Congress. So it is not hard to see the shackles holding him down from making a full throttle embrace and endorsement of presumptive nominee Donald Trump. His conflicts of loyalty and interest are weighing heavily on him, especially with the already anti-Trump stance of his former presidential team-master Mitt Romney. He is a politician with eyes to a future of higher callings and does not want to step on toes or burn bridges that he will need to crossover. So he was being careful and hedging his bets when he weighed in on candidate/nominee Donald Trump. According to Speaker Paul Ryan, "I am not ready to support Speaker Ryan's agenda. Perhaps in the future we can work together and come to an agreement about what is best for the American people. They have been treated so badly for so long that it is about time for politicians to put them first!" Icheoku says things will eventually settle down at the right time, so let the campaign against the Crooked Hillary begin and begin earnestly.

JOHN KASICH SAYS ME TOO, SUSPENDS CAMPAIGN.

Icheoku says what took him so long? A candidate who had less delegates than so many other candidates who dropped out of the race a long time ago. He would have taken a cue since and dropped out when it would have mattered most, after winning only his State of Ohio with nothing else to show as his participation trophy since then. Anyway, it is now Trump all the way and into the White House come November. Go Trump; Vote Trump.

TED CRUZ KNOCKED OUT AND SUSPENDS CAMPAIGN

Icheoku says finally he did what he would have done a long time ago having no pathway whatsoever to the nomination. The tag team gang-up with John Kasich failed; nomination of Carly Fiorina as vice presidential candidate flopped; preaching to the choir of his agenda also fell on deaf ears. He could not shake off the stigma of a Lyin' Ted and that sunk his boat. With no option left, he has to bow out and out he bowed. Icheoku says so long Ted.

FIORINA TUMBLES DOWN, THE PRELUDE?

Icheoku says Ted Cruz's presidential running mate, Carly Fiorina, took one for the Lyin' Ted when she stumbled and fell down while introducing the Lyin' Ted at an event in La Porte Indiana. Icheoku says possibly the Gods are angry at the Lyin' Ted, a drowning man, for clutching at whatever straw he can find to hold unto. What a sure ominous sign which does not bode well for the comical campaign of the Lyin' Ted and the 'Look At That Face' Fiorina. Icheoku says the Gods are wise as the sacrifice has no offals and no one needs a soothsayer to interpret the omen. Go Trump; Vote Trump.

OBA OF BENIN, DEAD AT 93.

Icheoku says Oba of Benin, Omo N'Oba N'Edo Uku Akpolokpolo Erediauwa 1, is dead. He died of old age related infirmities after being on the throne of his ancestors for 37 years. Erediauwa was 93 years old. Icheoku says adieu, King of Benin Kingdom.

LYIN' TED IS LOSING HIS MIND, NAMES A RUNNING MATE.

Icheoku says what other evidence of desperation of a drowning man who catches any and every straw around. After suffering the worst shellacking of any kind known in political primaries, the man who holds bible up in one hand, drops it and starts lying, has presumptuously named Carly Fiorina his vice presidential running mate. Icheoku says can one give what he does not have; otherwise how can a person who is not a presidential candidate name a vice presidential candidate. Icheoku says Lyin' Ted has once again not only lied to himself but to Carly Fiorina. This Ted, Americans don't trust and cannot trust because he is Lyin' Ted.

CRUZ AND KASICH, FACES OF CONSPIRATORS.

Icheoku says their gang-up will go burst. Losers they are and losers they will always forever be. Go Trump; VOTE TRUMP.

CHYNA DEAD AT 46, RIP

Icheoku says WWE female phenom, dubbed 9th Wonder of the world, Joan Marie Laurer aka CHYNA is dead. She died of complications from drug overdose. She was 46 years old. A woman of may parts, after her wrestling career, she dabbled into Reality Television with Surreal Life, posed for Playboy magazine, taught English in Japan and also acted pornography movies. But she had her monkey of drug addition which saw her participate in Celebrity Rehab; but she never actually truly kicked the habit and eventually lost her life to it. Icheoku says rest in peace Chyna.

SAY NO TO CROOKED HILLARY.

Icheoku says voting for Hillary Clinton is accepting things as they are. Need change, do not vote for the woman who has a lot to hide. VOTE TRUMP.

SHEIKH IBRAHIM EL ZAKZAKY, SEEING HELL?

Icheoku says the reason why it is not advised to mess with unknown soldiers, now permanently blinded in one eye as well as other sustained internal damages. But hey, ......

TUNJI BRAITHWAITE, DEAD AT 82 YEARS

Icheoku says may his restless soul now rest. Adieu Mr Socialist in name only, but acute Capitalist in reality.

BERNIE SANDERS ROUTS HILLARY CLINTON 3 - 0

Icheoku says another clear evidence that nobody really likes the 70 year old grandmother. Alaska, Washington and Hawaii just added their voice that Americans want to pivot from politics of the past and particularly the Clintons and the Bushes and their message is clear.

LOW ENERGY JEB ENDORSES LYING TED

Icheoku says wonders shall never end and in the silly season of politics, strange things do happen. Imagine the low energy JEB, who blew hundreds of millions of dollars on his own failed candidacy without much to show for it, not even one state win; now is pretending to confer something on the lying Ted Cruz. Anyway, by the endorsement, Ted Cruz is now tainted as an adopted establishment candidate. Ted Cruz will mortgage American peoples' interest to the same entrenched interests that have held it down for so long. Ted Cruz, not a person we can trust to shake things up and get the country moving again. Say no to liars, reject the lying Ted as no American wants a low energy presence in the White House. VOTE FOR TRUMP.

ROB FORD, FORMER TORONTO MAYOR, DEAD AT 46

Icheoku says the crack-cocaine smoking former Mayor of Toronto Canada and a Rush Limbaugh look-alike, is dead. Rob Ford died of cancer at a youthful age of 46 years. He shot to international limelight when he was caught and admitted to smoking crack. Icheoku says although he did not heed the advise of Whitney Houston that 'crack is whack,' he however did not die of his addiction. Icheoku says rest in peace the man dedicated to his people. Adieu Rob.

INTEL'S ANDY GROVE, DEAD AT 79.

Icheoku says rest in peace Mr Micro-Chips as what you helped create will continue to power so many electronic gadgets for so many years to come. Adieu.

BEAUTY PERSONIFIED.

PUTIN'S RUSSIA PULLS OUT OF SYRIA.

Icheoku says the proverbial strongman of Russia quickly found out that gunboat diplomacy takes guts and resources. Now, scared of being bled in Syria and suffering the fate of former Soviet Union in Afghanistan, the man who calls all the shots in Russia, Vladimir Putin, has beaten a retreat and ordered his military out of Syria. Icheoku says what a man that often thinks that braggadocio is tantamount to strength. But hey,......

HILLARY CLINTON, A HEAVILY FLAWED CANDIDATE.

Icheoku says the Democratic Party is running on empty this election year. If nominated will not be allowed to run by DOJ's indictment. If she runs will not win as Americans are tired of the Clintons and American women said not this particular woman. Anyway, regardless, Donald Trump will wipe the floor clean with her in November.

JAMES OCHOLI, MURDERED?

"His driver slammed on the brakes after receiving a radio message from the security car behind the minister’s main vehicle alerting him to a low pressure on one of the back tires. The driver’s panicked reaction precipitated an accident as the security vehicle then rammed into the minister’s vehicle, which somersaulted several times, instantly killing Mr. Ocholi and his first son. Mrs. Ocholi was subsequently pronounced dead after she was taken to a hospital." ICHEOKU queries: how close was the security vehicle to notice that the tire had low pressure? Second, how possible is it that a driver driving such a top state official is not experienced enough to feel the rough drive usually associated with low tire pressure? What made the driver to panic instantly as to force immediate full braking of the vehicle? How could a vehicle following at a safe distance ram into the minister's vehicle triggering the somersault which led to the accident and eventual death? Icheoku says something does not sound right here as the account of what happened suggests that a hit job was done on the minister; but where the order came from is the only thing subject to resolving here. Change has indeed come to Nigeria.

BEN CARSON RESTS PRESIDENTIAL BID.

Icheoku says a campaign that never took flight finally floundered and sputtered to an end. He could not even keep his eyelids up to hold open his eyes; always fidgeting and twiddling his fingers and rubbing his hands with such uninspiring aura that is not what American presidency deserves nor desires this 2016. Icheoku says Ben Carson should try his hands in pastoring a church where he will be a perfect fit but certainly not the dreamed presidency. A case of monkey do, monkey see and monkey wan do. Yes, Obama became president, so why not him. Anyway, nobody will actually miss him; so long Doc.

MITT ROMNEY HAS NOTHING ON TRUMP.

ICHEOKU says a failed loser who lost to a nigger, the angry conceited Mitt Romney is now telling Americans what? ICHEOKU says this particular Mormon who tied his family dog on roof of his car for a twelve hour journey thinking the dog was having fun, has nothing to tell Americans about their dear Donald Trump which is worth any iota of weight. So Americans, remember he is Mitt the Grinch as you listen to whatever gibberish he has to say; if only he could first return Trump's money for credibility. What a jealous nymph.

HILLARY CLINTON WINS SOUTH CAROLINA WITH BLACK VOTES.

Icheoku says the Democratic Party will be making a big mistake fielding the woman nobody likes in America. They will be doing so at a great risk of losing the general election to Donald Trump as she is not drawing any new enthusiasts to the party. Anyway, congratulations Hillary Clinton for gingering black sentiments to victory.

FIFA HAS A NEW PRESIDENT, GIANNI INFANTINO

Icheoku says hopefully he will help clean up the cesspool of corruption FIFA became under former President Sepp Blatter and restore its image to what it should represent. Icheoku says congratulations.

DONALD TRUMP WINS AGAIN, NEVADA.

Icheoku says congratulations Donald and together lets make America great again. Icheoku says Donald Trump BUILD THAT WALL, the great wall of America, built by Americans and paid for by Mexico. Go Trump!!

UBER DRIVER KILLS PEOPLE

Icheoku says the Kalamazoo Michigan killer is a driver with Uber. So fellas beware as the next one you hail might be an ax-murderer who could whack you right inside his vehicle. 45-year-old Jason Dalton drove to three locations in the Kalamazoo area where he shot several people, killing six and wounding two others.

JEB BUSH EATS THE HUMBLE PIE, DROPS OUT.

Icheoku says if only he had listened to his mother who earlier counseled him that the American people have had enough of the Bushes, may be he will not be so disgracefully forced to quit his presidential campaign bid. Icheoku however disagrees with JEB that wasting over $100 million with nothing to show for it but mediocre outing is tantamount to running a good campaign. Anyway, a good riddance to an intending political dynasty which American people frowns at. So long JEB and go make peace with Donald Trump that he may consider you for a cabinet position.

BOUTROS BOUTROS GHALI, DEAD AT 93.

Icheoku says Egyptian born former United Nations Secretary General Boutros Boutros Ghali is dead. He died of natural causes at a very ripe old age of 93 years. He held sway at the world body between 1992 to 1994. Icheoku's favorite quotes of his include:- “But the Roman empire had no need of diplomacy. Neither does the United States.” and “Nobody is interested in the poor countries in Africa or anywhere in the world." Icheoku says true to type, for speaking up to the powers that be, they made sure that he did not enjoy a second term at the world organization. Icheoku says rest in peace BBG. Adieu son of Africa.

SUPREME COURT JUSTICE SCALIA DEAD AT 79.

Icheoku says his death now makes it possible for President Barack Obama to appoint a more liberal justice to the United States Supreme Court and peradventure water down the conservativeness of that court. Justice Antonin Scalia, a fiery eyed red-hot conservative, was appointed to the Supreme Court by late President Ronald Reagan in 1986. Icheoku says may his conservative soul now rest in peace. Adieu Justice.

MADEILENE ALBRIGHT, SATAN'S AMBASSADOR TO AMERICA.

Icheoku says she is prowling, ready to take American women who are not supporting Hillary Clinton to the hottest spot in hell. A special place reserved for women who do not support women. But hey, American women just said not this particular kind of woman, Hillary Clinton.

DENVER BRONCOS WINS SUPER BOWL 50

Icheoku says congratulations to Pat Manning and his boys.

DROWNING JEB SENDS SOS TO 90 YEAR MOM?

Icheoku says how else does anyone identify a drowning man than he that is struggling to catch every straw floating by. Imagine the "LOW ENERGY" John Ellis Bush now calling on his 90 year mother, Barbara Bush, to please come to his rescue and help persuade the American people on his worthiness for president? Icheoku says the problem is not in the microphone but in American peoples' fatigue with the Bush as well as the Clinton name. Americans say no more of both families because governing America is not a family-members only affair. Just wondering who he will call when governing or negotiating with Putin becomes tough; May be his daddy? Why not for the mommy's boy.

AN AFRCIAN BEAUTY TO GRACE YOUR DAY

GLENN FREY, AN EAGLE TILL DEATH.

Icheoku says Eagles rocker Glenn Frey promised that he will remain an Eagle till death. In his own words, he said, “It was becoming increasingly apparent to me that, no matter where I went or what I did, for the rest of my life I would always be an Eagle.” Icheoku says very prophetic indeed as he died an Eagle. Rest in peace GF.

OSCARS MAELSTROM, JUST A TIP OF THE ICEBERG.

Icheoku says racism in America is a fact of everyday life and no place is spared of it. Icheoku once had a stint in a law firm of about 800 lawyers with only two black lawyers therein. Even our television screens screams of white only America in the faces of presenters and anchors; so what is the fuss about that the Oscars are kowtowing the cue? However, Icheoku is glad that some Hollywood heavy-hitters, who are black, tired of don't disturb their groove attitude, are finally voicing their concerns.

DAVID BOWIE, 69; DIES OF CANCER.

Icheoku says rock on Mister Rocker and may the angels now enjoy your entertainment prowess. Adieu.

NARUTO, THE SELFIE TAKING MACAQUE.

EL CHAPO BUSTED.

Icheoku says at least he got his six months of freedom after tunneling his way out of prison and now Joaquín Guzmán Loera aka El Chapo, the Mexican drug lord has been re-captured. Channeling Paul Bremer's Saddam Hussein's capture announcement as well as former President George Bush exuberant announcement aboard the aircraft carrier, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto, said “Mission accomplished: We have him”; admitted he did not prefix it with "ladies and gentlemen" and replaced "got" with "have." Usually there is no hiding place for the gold fish.

SAUDI ARABIA EXECUTES SHIITE CLERIC NIMR.

Icheoku says gradually the war of worlds of Islamic sects is coming to a hilt as a likely showdown between the two custodians of Sunni and Shia (Shiite), Saudi Arabia and Iran is now looking more likely and their continued saber rattling is growing louder. Peradventure the execution of Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr will provide them the much needed fuse to ignite their world of supremacy war. Meanwhile who knows if President Muhammadu Buhari of Nigeria will equally execute the other leader of Shiites in Nigeria Sheikh Ibraheem el Zakizaky who is being detained in Nigeria? The world including Icheoku is waiting and watching.

NATALIA COLE, DEAD AT 65 YEARS.

Icheoku says adieu Nat and now you would join your father King in serenading the heavens. So long.

HOVER-BOARDING PRIEST, SO COOL AND HIP.

Icheoku says the reason why the Catholic church is losing so many parishioners is their vice hold on ancient traditions in this modern times. They are stuck on yesterday while the whole world has since gone the opposite direction, leaving them behind. So what is wrong in a Fillipino catholic priest riding among his congregants on a hover-board, thus bringing some pep and modernity to preaching the gospel. Unfortunately just like pentecostal churches are eating their lunch because they are stuck up on boring traditions, so will they continue to frustrate parishioners out of their church, tired of sitting through drab and boring gospels. Icheoku says there is nothing wrong with a hovering man in long white cassock, it is cool; so please just let that priest do his thing as our Lord Jesus will have nothing against that.

THIS MAN IS BREAKING THE LAW, PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI THAT IS.

Icheoku says in a democracy, a court of competent jurisdiction gave an order but his government is refusing to honor the court's ruling and release Nnamdi Kanu. Icheoku says despotism has come back to Nigeria and the gains of the past sixteen years of democracy is gone. Buhari, Icheoku says obey court's order, release Nnamdi Kanu.

CHELSEA AND JOSE MOURINHO PARTS WAYS.

Icheoku says the firing of the award winning manager of Chelsea is yet another testament that one is as good as what he or she brings to the table. All his storied record with the club notwithstanding, no one remembered when it came time to let him go that the sun does not shine always. But hey, failure has no companion and he was hired regardless to bring home the bacon which he has failed to do so far very recently. But hey, Jose will be fine and Jose will find something to do as he is one heck of a good coach. From Icheoku to Mourinho, good luck and all the best; and after the rainfall usually comes sunshine. The fog of defeat will surely lift off.

FOR THE LOVE OF BIAFRA, THEY FEEL LOVE.

Icheoku says not the monster Yakubu JACKAL Gowon's starvation could stop their love for each other.

BIAFRA, THE SUN SHALL RISE AGAIN.

BUHARI NOW HAS A CERTIFICATE !!!

Icheoku says finally, the president has cured his certificate malaise and can now proudly present his certificate whenever required or requested. All hail the doctor-president of Nigeria.

DANIEL HOLTZCLAW OF OKLAHOMA, CONVICTED.

icheoku says what a pleasant verdict it is that an all white jury convicted all American white police officer for his crimes against the same people he was sworn to protect and serve. According to Oklahoma County DA, David Prater, "Justice was done today, and a criminal wearing a uniform is going to prison now." Icheoku says concurs and says indeed very regrettable!

NORTH FACE FOUNDER DOUGLAS TOMPKINS, DEAD AT 72.

Icheoku says he died doing what he loves best, taking on the outdoor, kayaking on General Carrera Lake in Patagonia Chile. Rest in peace.

OSCAR PISTORIUS IS A MURDERER.

Icheoku says every legal mind has always known that the South African judge who convicted Oscar erred with her manslaughter verdict. Finally at last, a Daniel has come to judgment and the murderer has been appropriately tagged. Now he can go do his real time for the real crime of murder of a damsel whose only crime was loving a man without legs an she paid for it with her life. Icheoku says Oscar Pistorius is an animal who deserves no mercy and should have the book thrown at him.

MR AND MRS TERROR?

Icheoku says who goaded who, the madam or the master? America may never know but if what Lady Macbeth did to Macbeth concerning Duncan is anything to fall back to, then Icheoku agrees that women usually have overbearing influence on men. In the San Bernardino mayhem, Tashfeen Malik may have been the instigator who convinced Syed Farook into waging a terrorist jihad on innocent Americans? But hey, just a speculation.

JUSTICE OR BIAFRA?

Give us Biafra says the children of Biafra!!!

THE ABORTION CLINIC KILLER, ROBERT LEWIS DEAR.

Icheoku says he said "no more baby parts"; yet he killed three fully grown adult human beings while allegedly protesting the "killing" of unborn fetuses. Robert Lewis Dear, the Colorado Springs Planned Parenthood killer, killed a police officer Swasey, Ke'Arre M. Stewart and Jennifer Markovsky, over what he termed the organization's selling of aborted fetuses body parts as captured in a video.

SEXLESS LOVE, LOVELESS SEX?

Icheoku says both inhere from a relationship that is all but dead and comatose, with partners' one foot already out the door. So watch out for the tale tell signs and know when to rejig yours before it transforms you into an ex.

HASNA AIT BOULAHCEN, THE WOMAN WHO BLEW HERSELF UP.

Icheoku says what will make this woman take her life must be something very dear to her or she is mentally too ill to know any better. God help us from these suicidal maniacs.

ABDUL-HAMID ABU QUD, FRANCE MOST WANTED TERRORIST KILLED

Icheoku says there is no safe place for those who will do us harm as another one of their mongrel bites the dust and can never do any person any more harm.

ABDUL-HAMID ABU QUD, FRANCE MOST WANTED TERRORIST

Icheoku says what is driving this extremism; is it crass neglect and the need for revenge or simply a cry for help from a society that seems to have become deaf and tuned out to the plights of the lowly of this world. Whatever be their reason or motivation, Icheoku says blackmailing has never been an acceptable preferred bargaining tool. Say no to terrorism, help find this man.

RHONDA ROUSEY RETURNS, ASHAMED?

Icheoku says the ever showy UFC lady who was decimated by Holly Holms returned to Los Angeles covering her face in shame. Icheoku says there is nothing to be ashamed with failing, you just gonna get up and soldier on. But with Rhonda, she has convinced herself that is she is superhuman and invincible, who no one could beat, hence the overwhelming feeling her loss in Melbourne Australia has become. Now the girl who likes to let everybody know who is calling all the shots could not even brave showing her face. Icheoku says what a huge joke life is that plays such a cruel joke on people.

FREE NNAMDI KANU of RADIO BIAFRA!!!

Icheoku says to President Muhammadu Buhari, enough of this overkill; please let the man go.

BIAFRA, WHAT SAY YOU NIGERIANS?

Icheoku says admitted a united Nigeria is preferred but the continuos treatment of some Nigerians as not bona fides is threatening the very fabric of the union. This was me in Biafra; but hey not afraid to have a relive or a rerun and a do over at it. So Nigerians the option is to solve the problem triggering the agitation by ensuring a more equitable, just society for all as equals.

FIFA U-17 WORLD CUP CHILE 2015, AN ALL AFRICAN FINALS.

Icheoku says it is an all African affairs as Nigeria which routed Mexico 4 - 2 faces another African country Mali which defeated Belgium 3 -1. It is going to be a beautiful finals as both teams have good ball jugglers and are equally strong with great stamina. Admitted that Mali beat Croatia that beat Nigeria, but it is going to be a good soccer outing and Icheoku predicts a Nigerian victory over Mali but by a small margin. Congratulations Nigeria and Mali and may the better side win it for Africa.

HILLARY CLINTON, READY TO LOSE TO ANOHTER NIGGER?

Icheoku says the war house of Democratic Party's Hillary Clinton must be frantic at the news that Ben Carson is currently polling at par with her. At 47% electability for both candidates, it must be deja-vu 2008 when "the boy who is supposed to be serving them tea" trounced the wife of former President Clinton. Icheoku asks will Hillary Clinton afford to suffer another loss in her bid to occupy the White House to yet another blackman? Only time will tell.

KANSAS CITY ROYALS WINS WORLD SERIES.

Icheoku says congratulations KC; it was a victory well earned.

FRED THOMPSON, DEAD AT 73.

Icheoku says Law and Order Arthur Branch, former presidential candidate aspirant and United States Senator from the State of Tennessee, whose face adorned many television commercial including a reverse mortgage company, Republican Fred Thompson, is dead. He was 73 years old and died of Lymphoma related causes. May his soul now rest. Icheoku says adieu to Mr. Swagger.

AMERICA, WE HAVE A NEW SPEAKER RYAN.

Icheoku says at least a somewhat consolation prize for the once ran presidential candidate and unsuccessful vice presidential candidate. Icheoku hopes the fringed right wing religious fundamentalists of the Republican Party will allow him do his job. To Speaker Paul Ryan, Icheoku says hearty congratulations!

OPRAH WINFREY'S WEIGHT WATCHERS GAMBLE?

Icheoku says forget Oprah; the secret is to stop eating. Just seal up the mouth and the weight will go away. So any other counseling is but a gibberish meant to fleece fat ones of their hard earned money. Now you know.

BIAFRA, KEEP HOPE ALIVE.

Icheoku says while a united Nigeria is preferred but continuing a systematic policy which ensures this state of affairs in Southeast Nigeria is instigating to say the least.

MARITAL DIFFICULTIES, YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

"Marriage is one of the most difficult things in the world and unfortunately sometimes they fail." - Aston Kutcher, Demi Moore's former boy-husband.

JOEY IS OUT, NOT RUNNING.

Icheoku says it appears Vice President Joe Biden could not afterall find the needed fire in the belly to prosecute the 2016 presidential election campaign. As a result, he has bowed out of a possible run, blaming family and time as factors against. Icheoku says it would have been difficult winning based on the record he shares with President Barack Obama. Anyway, it makes it now much easier for Donald J Trump to make an easier dash for the White House, provided of course he picks a minority, probably Ben Carson, as his running mate. Icheoku wishes Joey all the best.

RADIO BIAFRA NNAMDI KANU, A SALUTE TO COURAGE.

Icheoku says to believe in a cause and be ready to suffer some inconvenience as well as to die for it if need be is courage defined. For this reason, Icheoku hereby recognizes Nnamdi Kanu as a man of great courage who in his pursuit of the realization of Biafra, using his own weapon of mass dissemination of information, Radio Biafra, has now been made enemy of the Nigeria state. Admitted a one Nigeria is preferred but reasons for the agitation for an independent state of Biafra is everywhere. Kudos NK.

DIEPREYE ALAMIEYESEIGHA, DEAD AT 63.

Icheoku says all his struggles has come to this, lifeless; and you wonder whether all the troubles people go through in their attempt to be this and that is indeed worth the effort afterall. But hey, like every mortal, DSP has now gone to meet his maker and to account for his stewardship on this earth while it lasted. May his soul now rest.

ISSA HAYAOTU, FIFA ACTING PRESIDENT.

Icheoku says the embattled president of FIFA Sepp Blatter has finally been forced to step aside as FIFA tries to find its way out of the woods that is its current corruption quagmire. To act in his place is the African Confederation Chairman Cameroonian Issa Hayaotu. Icheoku says whatever as FIFA needs a total outsider to come in and clean house. Issa Hayaotu has been there for as long and might equally be part of the problem rather than the solution. But hey, the world is watching the house of football/soccer to see how it comes out of its dug hole. Congratulations Issa for at least being the first blackman allowed into the FIFA executive chair.

JORDAN DAVIS FOUNDATION INC.,

Icheoku had a chance meeting with the father of Florida playing loud music murdered teenager, Jordan Davis. It was an exhilarating experience indeed; moreso as all the story of murdered Jordan was world wide and merely a static until a human face of the tragedy crossed our path. Icheoku discussed extensively some problems of blacks in America before we shook parting hands. He gave Icheoku an armband and a card, picture of both are posted here. Icheoku has not lost a child and cannot pretend to know what type of irate feeling it must be for a parent to lose his child in the manner Jordan was murdered - simply for playing music in his own car which the assailant who parked nearby considered to be too loud. A matter made worse because he never gave Jordan the choice of tuning down the music OR...? Anyway, this is a shout out to Ron Davis and our little way of keeping the issue alive.

PILOT DIES MIDAIR, WHAT A SCARE!

Icheoku says it reads like the stuff Hollywood horror movies are made of. 147 passengers and five crew on a cross country flight from Los Angeles to Boston and suddenly the man behind the controls gives up the ghost inside the cockpit. But thankfully for a co-pilot, the story was not told much differently. Icheoku wonders whether some plane crashes are as a result of pilots getting incapacitated midair. American Airlines Flight 550 is an Airbus A320 plane.

TRUMP, YOU'RE HIRED!!!!!

Icheoku says but wait, not that so fast, as you must first cross the Republican Party's nomination hurdle and then have Hillary Clinton to smother before grabbing the keys to the White House from President Barack Obama, THAT ONE who was born in Kenya. What an interesting time we live in, now in America, with a Donald Trump who wants to be president. Icheoku says best of luck Donald with both the intention, the plan and possibly its successful execution.

BUHARI HIJACKS OIL MINISTRY.

“I will remain Minister of Petroleum." - President Muhammadu Buhari. Icheoku says as if he has done creditably well with just being president of Nigeria? Now PMB has added or rather appropriated to himself yet another portfolio - minister of OIL? Now go figure how everything will go asleep in Nigeria under a Baba Go Slow president who is now doubling as Minister of Petroleum. Like the Ota Deity, Baba Iyabo Olusegun Obasanjo, who equally doubled as Petroleum Minister, these army men are simply taking Nigerians for a ride, arrogating to themselves all these holier than thou, unearned and unmerited, status. What a leper colony Nigeria has become that cannot even stand up and face down this despot or did he call himself a "converted democrat" and you wonder wherein is the conversion in this man. What a shame!

BUHARI GREEN-LIGHTS BIAFRA?

“As we engage in these annual debates, we need remind ourselves of the principles that led to the founding of the United Nations. Among those are peaceful coexistence and self-determination of peoples. In this context, Mr. President, the unresolved question of self-determination for the Palestinian people and those of Western Sahara, both nations having been adjusted by the United Nations as qualifying for this inalienable right must now be assured and fulfilled without any further delay or obstacle." - President Muhammadu Buhari at the UN. Icheoku says thought the people of Biafra equally wants their own self-determination or are they not deemed qualified to so aspire? Just asking, since PMB has left the door open by saying that such is an inalienable right of the people?

POPE'S VISIT ENDS, DEPARTS.

Icheoku says safe flight and thanks for visiting. Icheoku observes that the pope flies commercial unlike those super-duper rich Nigerian pastors and men of God who jet around in gifted private jets? Now you know why the gates of heaven is solidly shut tight.

SPEAKER JOHN BOEHNER FORCED OUT?

Icheoku says the American Taliban of the United States Congress has finally succeeded in ousting moderate Speaker John Boehner from office and out of power. The speaker, rather than be forced to the very far right of the Republican controlled Congress, decided to take a bow and surrender power. Now the extremist far right fringed fundamentalists wing of the Republican Party will want to drive the country to the edge of the cliff with their sanctimonious agenda BUT would the country let them? Only time will tell and to Speaker John Boehner, Icheoku says so long.

JACKIE COLLINS TOO, DEAD AT 77

Icheoku says rest in peace Jackie. Breast cancer, that scourge that is taking a big toll on mostly women of the world has yet claimed another victim. Jackie Collins was 77 years old, Adieu,

HID AWOLOWO DEAD AT NEARLY 100 YEARS OLD.

Icheoku says like with every mortal, the end always eventually comes regardless of how long the journey lasted. Hannah Idowu Dideolu Awolowo walked this journey called life for quite a long time and now deserves to rest. Icheoku says you know how long one has lived when the person's children starts to predecease him or her and at age 70 plus. A woman who got 28 years ahead her husband Obafemi Awolowo who died since 1987 did in fact live a very long time. Icheoku says rest in peace and say hello to your husband Awo. Please let him know also that the tribalism he implanted in Nigeria is reaping the very body fabric of the nation to shreds. Also that the presidency which eluded him is now somewhat in Awolowo family by proxy of his grandson inlaw, Vice President Oshibanjo. Adieu HID.

MINISTERS ARE NOISE MAKERS - BUHARI?

Icheoku says at last President Muhammadu Buhari has inadvertently let the cat out of the bag on the real reason he does not want to appoint ministers and would never have, but for the constitution which makes it imperative. According to PMB, they are just noise makers. In his own words, "The ministers are there, I think, to make a lot of noise; for the politicians to make a lot of noise." Icheoku says what a disdainful and disrespectful thing to say of a people; and now you know the mindset which this lean and mean Cassius of Daura has, that looks down on everybody? But President Muhammadu Buhari has no choice in the matter and must keep faith accordingly, this September, by appointing those noise makers as mandated, regardless. The other question is whether any serious Nigerian will still accept such appointment, fully aware that his boss, the president, regards him as a lousy noise maker? But hey, Icheoku waits with great expectation to know the identities of these noise makers of Nigeria. Icheoku laments what a president suffering from a diarrhea of the mouth and who seriously needs an urgent speaking coach.

QUOTE ON THE MARBLE

"Once you're disciplined, you would find it easy to cope with the challenges of life." - Okoro Junior Bright Chimezie

ADEFUYE, NIGERIA AMBASSADOR TO AMERICA, DEAD AT 68

9/11 DUSTY LADY, DEAD AT 42.

Icheoku says her ordeal on September 11 2001 terrorist attack in Manhattan NewYork sprung her unto the world stage as that well dressed lady covered in dusty asbestos. Marcy Borders, age 42, has died of stomach cancer which she allegedly caught from inhaling asbestos dust on 9/11. Icheoku queries if it were the dust, why not lung cancer instead? Anyway, rest in peace as the dusty lady has now returned to the dust from which she was made and momentarily covered in on that horrific day of hell at the World Trade Center.

LEADERS NEEDS PRAYERS - OBASANJO

"May God save leaders from sycophants. They know what you want to hear and they feed you with it essentially for their own selfish interest." - Baba Iyabo Olusegun Obasanjo, an Ota Deity.

TORI KELLY CALLS OUT WOMEN, SAYS THEY ARE CRAZY?

'Women, we are crazy but amazing' - Tori Kelly, in her song "Should've been us. Icheoku says now you know so the next time you are stuck, dazed and confused and wondering what did you do wrong again, just remember that they are wired differently.

ILE-IFE HIGHLY STEEPED IN TRADITION.

“There are 401 Yoruba deities and temples scattered worldwide. 201 of them are in Ife. Among these deities, the only speaking one is the legendary living Ooni." - Chief Olajide Farotimi Falobe, the Obadio Agbaye of Ile Ife (Chief Priest)

OONI OF IFE, DEAD AT 85 YEARS.

Icheoku says like everything in life, his sojourn on earth has come to a final full stop, ended. Now he will go back to his maker to give account of his stewardship while he lasted. The Ooni of Ife, Alayeluwa Oba Okunade Sijuwade is dead. He was 85 years old and died in London of old age related complications and ailments. He began his reign in December 6, 1980. Icheoku says in the battle of supremacy among Yoruba monarchs, the Ooni has now lost out to the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Olayiwola Adeyemi III, with whom he has been in running battle of who is the supreme generalissimo of Yoruba land monarchs. May his soul now rest. Adieu.

BOBBI KRISTINA BROWN IS DEAD, GONE TO BE WITH MOM?

Icheoku says in crack-land, that is. Now they can smoke the hookah pipe, plus whatever is in it, without fear of ever being whacked again; because in that land beyond the horizon, crack is not that whacky. Bobbi Kritsina Brown was 22 years old and dried out dead in a hospice, where she was deprived of any nutrition following her irrecoverable brain-dead state? Another example of innocence lost and how not to love a child so much as to spoil and completely destroy her. So long Bobbi and say hello to Whitney. Now her father and former husband of her late mother Whitney Houston, Bobby Brown, is left wifeless and daughterless; a widower and a father-ower of some sort? But hey, life happens and it is nobody's business but Bobby Brown's prerogative to deal with it?

OBJ AND IBB, YOU ARE GOING TO PRISON - PMB

"No one will escape justice as far as punishing those who are found corrupt is concerned. I just have to. There is not going to be any party member or personality that will escape justice.” - President Muhammadu Buhari speaking with CNN Christine Amanpour. Icheoku says Nigerians will erupt with euphoric joy the day these two evil incarnates are permanently locked up and away, with the keys to their cells thrown away into the ocean.

SEPP BLATTER, BLASTED WITH CASH.

Icheoku says as if he has not en-massed enough already, the eminently corrupt FIFA President Sepp Blatter received massive cash influx today, courtesy of British comic Lee Nelson, who rained bundles of cash on the embattled FIFA president. But the Greeks would have made better use of it though? Icheoku says this man has lost every credibility to still be sitting as president of FIFA, the corruption cesspool. Luckily it was not some putrefied eggs or garlic sauce that was bombed on him. Lucky bastard.

QUOTE OF AN ISLAMIC TERRORIST.

"Life is short and bitter. My name causes National Security alerts, what does yours do?" - Mohammod Youssuf Abdulazeez

AMERICA'S RACISM PROPELS TRUMP TO THE LEAD?

Icheoku says he gave them the red meat of immigration control they are seeking and now American people have queued behind the man who has nothing good to say about immigrants. This shows how much racism is still a factor in everything and anything America. Donald Trump now leads the GOP pack at 17 percentile.

50CENTS IS BANKRUPT, CAN'T PAY HIS BILLS?

Icheoku asks where did all the money go? To bling bling may be including the over $33 million Coca Cola doled out for his Mineral Waters, loyalties from movies, his songs as well as gigs of upwards of $500,000 per 45minutes show? Hopefully the bankruptcy will help him reorder his finances as Icheoku will not like to see another black man go under the water like Mike Tyson did after making so much millions.

SERENA WILIAMS WINS 6TH WIMBLEDON !!!

Icheoku says congratulations to the William sister for yet adding another feather on her tennis playing cap. Bravo !!!

OMAR SHARIF, LAWRENECE OF ARABIA, DEAD AT 83.

Icheoku says may his soul rest in peace.

GREECE PM TSIPRAS LICKS HIS WOUND??

Icheoku says now he has accepted everything demanded of his government and people plus more; yet their creditors are waiting to make him swallow more of his vomit before opening the shut off spigots of funds to help the starving Greeks with a lifeline. Icheoku says a sure example of how not to walk a talk, on the reverse!

RACISM IN AMERICA RUNS DEEP.

"I shot a nigger. It's all over the news. I thought it was okay to kill blacks in America." - Mikhail Markhasev, who in 1997 killed Ennis Cosby, son of Bill Cosby.

SAI BUHARI, THE CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN?

Icheoku asks who said that, on what occasion and to whom? Now Nigerians know what a snake oil change really looks like. A government that could not take flight, dead on arrival; and some people are saying Nigerians can wait till 2019 to do the needful? But hey, he got the votes and he can use his mandate however he sees fit. If you don't like it, too bad!!!!!!

PMB, 406 NIGERIANS KILLED IN 36 DAYS?

Icheoku says in President Muhammadu Buhari’s 36 days in office, Boko Haram have killed 406 Nigerians. At an average of 11 Nigerians killed each day, is any Nigerian going to still be alive by the time PMB's term finishes? Icheoku says what an alarming crisis point Nigeria has finally reached in their struggle against Boko Haram terrorists and the new president does not seem to have an answer to the madness; at least not yet? A president who rode into office assuring that Boko Haram will be a thing of the past upon being sworn in as president, BUT....

USA V. JAPAN FINALS, THE RIVALRY CONTINUES.

Icheoku says it is deja vu 2011 as that year's two FIFA Women's World Cup finalists USA and Japan are at it again. Japan won in 2011; but this year in Canada 2015, Icheoku is confident that Team USA will take their revenge on Team Japan. So on Sunday, July 5, 2015 when the final whistle is blown in Canada, United States Women soccer team will lift the championship cup. What a good match they have played so far but only a victory over the Japanese side will really provide the good icing on the cake. Go Team USA.

INVESTIGATIVE DISCOVERY, A MUST WATCH TELEVISION.

Icheoku sys if you are not watching ID, you are probably missing out on so much great television and a guide to staying alive in a very turbulent, dark and murky world where trust is in very short supply. So call your provider today and ask for a hook up.

OBAMACARE IS HERE TO STAY - SUPREME COURT

Icheoku says at last President Obama signature legislation is effectively part of America's landmark benefits as the Supreme Court in a six to three decision has upheld a vital part of the law which otherwise would have seen it collapse. Now Americans who were hitherto priced out of health insurance market can now get covered courtesy of President Barack Obama's Affordable Care Act aka Obamacare. Icheoku says congratulations to BO and also grateful for the courage at the Supreme Court that gave its final seal of approval.

SAVE A MOTHER TODAY, DONATE.

Icheoku says according to Savingmothers.org, "more than 343,000 women in developing nations die during childbirth every year." So, could the solution lie in having less babies one may ask; except that such drastic measure would lead to the eventual extinction of mankind? Anyway, this organization seems to have figured out what causes this maternal mortality and what could be done to help plug it up. Icheoku encourages you to donate today to Savingmothers.org to help the group continue its good work saving mothers, especially in developing world.

TAKE DOWN THE FLAG, PLUS MORE.

Icheoku says racism in America can only go away when white people sincerely wants to make it go away and seriously address the root causes and the fundamentals of race problems in America. Until then, all these take down the flag will remain what they are - mere symbolism.

A QUOTE THAT SIZZLES.

A pretty face can only take you so far.

RELIGION IS INDEED POLITICS?

icheoku agrees with the school of thought which says that religion is an organized politics. Imagine a church which does not usually always agree with science particularly as it appertains to evolution, now seems to agree with the same science on global warming? Anyway, to each his or her own; but Icheoku would rather these men of God consign themselves with their primary task of winning souls for God and leave politics for politicians and science for scientists. But hey, what does Icheoku know to hold an opinion in matters of faith and religion?

PMB, SIMPLY TOO OLD TO FUNCTION?

"I wish I became Head of State when I was a governor, just a few years as a young man. Now at 72, there is a limit to what I can do.” - President Muhammadu Buhari. ICHEOKU asks when did PMB realize that he is a very old man and unfit for the daunting office of the presidency? Did he just wake up from a deep coma he went into since 1985 to suddenly realize that at 73 years old, he is simply too old to effectively function as president? But hey, those Nigerians that bought into his snake-oil are the ones to blame not PMB, who has been making one excuse after another on why he cannot deliver on his various election promises to Nigerians and you wonder who actually drank the cyanide-laced coolaid on March 28, 2015.

CHRIS ANYANWU, CO-SPONSOR OF NIGERIA'S CHILD-MOTHERS BILL?

Icheoku says alongside the notorious child-molester who forcibly takes ten and eleven year old female children as wives, Ahmed Yerima, she co-sponsored the Sexual Offenses Bill 2015 which makes it okay for men to go into eleven year old girls? Icheoku asks what is wrong with matured ladies and why this preference for young innocents who are not matured enough to make informed sexual consent. Icheoku admonishes that this bill must not be signed into law by President Muhammadu Buhari as it is or better still it should be sent back to the Senate for upward review of the age of consent and sexual maturity of Nigerian girls.

PRINCE GEORGE DOTES ON LITTLE SISTER, PRINCESS CED.

Icheoku says what a beautiful picture of the future King of England, Prince George carrying his little sister, also a future queen of England, Princess Charlotte Elizabeth Diana, Simply put, the picture is beautiful and their pose awesome. Icheoku prays for their continued good health as they grow into a future they will help influence and hopefully for the better. Congratulations to William and Kate for the good job they are presently doing, raising the two kids.

TARIQ AZIZ, ESCAPES THE NOOSE?

Icheoku says it would appear that the colorful face of Saddam Hussein's Iraq, the ever vivacious Information Minister, Tariq Aziz, finally left this world on his own accord and not by force of an Iraqi government's hangman's noose? Tariq died of heart attack, he was 79 years old. Icheoku says may his soul now rejoin his boss Saddam Hussein so that they can continue smoking Cuban cigars and having fun, being ministered by Iraqi people; only that there will be no Iraqi people over there to be taken prisoners of their depravity. Oh, my bad memory, Icheoku almost forgot that the over nine hundred thousand Iraqis killed since the Iraqi invasion can be re-captured by the duo and put under their jackboot once again. Why not, if not; since those Iraqis will still recognize, bow and tremble at their sight? Adieu TA.

VICE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN LOSES SON TO CANCER.

Icheoku says the son of vice president Joe Biden, Beau Biden, has finally succumbed to his brain cancer affliction. Beau Biden died, following a relapse of his already once operated brain tumor, he was 46 years old. Icheoku says like his father Joe Biden said and Icheoku agrees "a parent knows success when his child turns out better than he did" and according to the Vice President, you sure did. RIP Beau and henceforth he will never suffer pain anymore. Adieu Beau!

MUHAMMADU BUHARI, NIGERIA'S NEW PRESIDENT.

Icheoku says hello and welcome to Nigeria's new President Muhammadu Buhari. Icheoku says may he live long and thrive and may his reign flourish and bring Nigerians the much needed prosperity and functionality every Nigerian craves for. Congratulations President MB.

137 SHOTS FIRED, YET MICHAEL BRELO NOT GUILTY?

Icheoku says he stood on a car and shot two unarmed black occupants 15 times after twelve other officers had first riddled the same people with 122 bullets; yet Judge John O'Donnel found Officer Michael Brelo not guilty of anything. It is in Cleveland Ohio and those two black people killed were husband and wife Melissa Williams and Afredo Willaims. Icheoku says it is America and black life don't matter; just another black persons biting the dust, so what?

ELON MUSK, THE MIND BEHIND TESLA AND HIS NEW BIOGRAPHY.

Icheoku says where others are writing apps and building virtual stuff, he is actually inventing and building actual real things. Think of the zero-gas, zero-emission TESLA cars and SPACE-X and then you can begin to understand the man who at 43 has set his eyes on taking mankind to Mars. Icheoku will read the new biography and hopes you too.

PRINCE GEORGE NOW HAS A SISTER

Icheoku congratulates Prince William and Duchess Kate Templeton on the arrival of their second child, a princess and sister to Prince George.

WENDY LEDWABA, SUPPORTS XENOPHOBIC ATTACKS?

”I dnt care what u say. I’ve lived amongst Nigerians ..my best friend is married to a Nigerian ..they r heartless …they dnt care how they get the money and they think they are untouchable …even the zims and Congolese I know hate Nigerians ..deny it all u want but u and I know that the good Nigerians are only a hand full…if these attacks were directed only at the Nigerians I ddnt even feel an ounce of hurt cos I’ve witnessed all around the pain and chaos they’ve caused” Icheoku admonishes what a Jezebel of South Africa this daughter of Eve is that drives joy seeing innocent lives wasted just because of hatred.

RAHEEM AGBAJE SALAMI, HOW NOT TO APPEAL A SENTENCE?

Icheoku says one of the most pathetic case in the tragic Indonesia executed drug peddlers is the case of one Nigerian Raheem Agbaje Salami. He was tried and convicted for possession of heroine which he concealed inside his suitcase, in Surabaya airport on September 2, 1998. He was sentenced to life imprisonment in 1999, which he appealed and the sentence was reduced to twenty years. Then buoyed by the successful outcome of his appeal, he further appealed for the reduction of his twenty years sentence to the Supreme Court, which then reversed both lower courts decisions and handed him a death sentence. He petitioned for clemency to the clemency board, pleading to even accept his original life sentence instead, but was rejected. He was among those executed alongside eight others in Indonesia. Icheoku says what a way not to bring undue hardship upon oneself, except that he was not a seer to know the outcome of his effort. RIP.

BALTIMORE BURNING !!!

Icheoku says regrettably what is going on in Baltimore Maryland is the venting of age long animosity against the police and the state for their perceived indifference to blacks in America; a long cry for help that have gone unanswered and for a long time. From Ferguson to Oakland to South Carolina to New York to now Baltimore, the story is the same throughout America, blackman killed by police and nothing happens to the police? Anyway, Icheoku hopes that the authorities will listen to this continuous cry for help by black Americans before something more drastic and earth-shattering destructive happens.

BEN AFFLECK'S SLAVE OWNING ANCESTRY?

Icheoku says which American true blue-blood breed family did not profit from the human trafficking called slavery? So it is not surprising therefore that Actor Ben Affleck was outed as one man who pedigreed in a slave plantation's owner. Icheoku asks when will Ben Affleck pay some reparation to African Americans for the rape of slavery visited on them by his ancestors? It could be one sure step in righting the wrongs of slavery, regardless.

UCHE CHUKWUMERIJE DEAD AT 75, RIP.

XENOPHOBIC SOUTH AFRICA?

Icheoku says this is one of their victims, an innocent little child merely playing when these atrocious marauders descended on his family's shop and everything went dark. South Africa, what would Nelson Mandela say as he turns angrily in his grave wondering what became of the people he left behind? What a shame.

DAVID CAMERON, LIKE BUHARI, WILL NOT DEBATE?

Icheoku says the refusal of Nigeria's president-elect Muhammadu Buhari to debate during his presidential run is having a ripple effect throughout the world. Suddenly his obstinacy has been learnt in far away United Kingdom where the incumbent Prime Minister David Cameron, buoyed by Muhammadu Buhari's winning election without debate, has also refused to participate in election debates? Icheoku queries is this a good export from Nigeria to the United Kingdom?

AARON HERNANDEZ GETS LIFE!

"I hereby sentence you to a term of your natural life without the possibility of parole." With those words Judge Susan Garsh sent the former New England Patriot NFL player, Aaron Hernandez, to a long pensive time behind prison walls to enable him reflect on his action that night that saw his friend Odin Lloyd murdered by him. Icheoku says Hernandez has now finally moved to a really big house as his multi-million dollar mansion seem not to be big enough for him afterall. An equal opportunity penal system that had blind eye to his rising status and boy will he have enough time to actually do some thinking, being merely 25 years old himself. What a life wasted and a budding American dream now evaporated into a nightmare. Oh America, our America that can see you rise and fall within blithering moments.

REVEREND SCHULLER IS DEAD.

Reverend Robert H. Schuller has died after a battle with terminal cancer. He was 88. Icheoku says rest in peace, Adieu!

NO OFFICE IS WORTH SHEDDING ANY NIGERIAN BLOOD!

ICHEOKU say this President Jonathan is indeed very special and has exhibited remarkable trait of a citizen of peace. Even despite the unfounded accusation of training thousand snipers, no Nigerian has been executed under his watch as the Ota Deity wrongly accused. History will vindicate the just as Icheoku is emphatic that Nigerians will sooner than later regret their votes to ouster him. Salute Mr President.

TOO SELF ABSORBED, THINK AGAIN.

"Stooping down for a dwarf does not make one less taller" - Professor Cyprian Okonkwo: The ordinary person test - Timbu Kolian V. The Queen 1968 119 CLR 147. Icheoku says if only people could apply knowledge to their daily dealings with others and not be too self-absorbed to think it is going to be always their way or the high way.

NIGERIA IS TOO BIG FOR APC - LAMIDO

"Nigeria cannot be governed by an aggregate of pain, anger and frustration which is APC defined. - Jigawa State Governor Sule Lamido

AT 73 YEARS OLD AND STILL WANTS TO BE PRESIDENT?

ICHEOKU says that would make Muhammadu Buhari the second oldest president in Africa, second only to Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe. Any watcher of that lifer in Harare, would agree with Icheoku that except Nigerians desire a sleeping and dozing-off grandpa in charge of Nigeria's affairs, then there is no need gambling with such a rustic choice for president. ON MARCH 28, VOTE GEJ.

BUHARI MUST DEBATE

Icheoku says but for his near senility and early stages of dementia, there should be no other acceptable reason why a man who wants to rule Nigeria should not debate issues bothering and affecting Nigeria. Otherwise how would Nigerians assess his preparedness for office and basic understanding and grasp of world events which will impact them as a people and country. Muhammadu Buhari, Icheoku joins this guy in insisting that you debate.

DON'T CONDONE GENOCIDE, REJECT BUHARI

Icheoku says this was me in Biafra, before the airlift to Libreville Gabon from Uturu-Okigwe (present day Abia State) refugee camp, when kwashiorkor nearly got me disemboweled. Muhammadu Buhari and his band of rabid dogs inflicted this untold level of inhumane starvation on Icheoku alongside millions of other not as lucky but perished women and children of Biafra. Icheoku says if this callous jackal could so ruthlessly cause my empty stomach to so inflate, imagine the psi the thought of his present adventure is exerting on the cranial walls of my brains. So please Nigerians, help Icheoku tell Muhammadu Buhari that Icheoku and Nigerians have suffered enough hardship already under his watch and that he should watch Nigerians NO MORE. On February 14, 2015, with your vote, show that you are not completely drained of humanity like him, VOTE GEJ.

BUHARI, YOUR PAPERS PLEASE?

Icheoku says enough of these Miyetti Allah people and their mentality of different rules applies to different people. This time, Muhammadu Buhari must show his necessary qualifying certificate or he must take the exit out of the presidential race. It is certificate or no presidential run, period.

SALUTE TO THE SOLDIER

Icheoku says kudos to those people in uniform everywhere who are putting their lives on line in defense of their fatherland and society.

THE CHILDREN OF BIAFRA

Muhammadu Buhari conspired to bring about this and now wants survivors of his pogrom to reward him with Nigeria's presidency? Icheoku says what an imbecilic audacity.

EMIR OF KANO, DEAD AT 81

Icheoku says the man who called the shots in Kano traditional council, Alhaji Ado Bayero, has died after 51 years on the throne of his fathers. Ado Bayero was a good man, detribalized and not fanatically religious. He visited Israel when Buhari prohibited such visits and was punished by Buhari for that. He also understood the plight of Biafrans and was a friend to Ojukwu until death and also attended his burial ceremony at Nnewi. While he reigned, every person in Kano felt at home because of who he is and the all-welcoming style of his leadership. Icheoku says with many Hausa/Fulani like Ado Bayero, Nigerians will not have problems with them. One other good news is that he died in Nigeria and did not go to India or any other medical tourism foreign country to die; unlike so many other high-up Nigerians. icheoku says rest in peace the peoples beloved Emir.

Translate Icheoku

NELSON MANDELA 1918 - 2013.

Icheoku says he came, did what needed to be done and has now gone. May the Almighty reward his effort for leading his people out of apartheid satanic yoke-hold. Like the biblical Moses, he secured their freedom and above all forgave those who hounded him. An enigma is no more. So long Madiba.

THE CHILD WHO HUGGED THE POPE.

Everybody loves Pope Francis it seems as evidenced by the little boy who hugged the pope. Like Jesus said, let the little children come to me and the pope did not mind the presence of the innocent. 10/30/13

BRITISH MONARCHY, A NEW KING IS BORN!

Icheoku says William Shakespeare is right that some people are born great as in this little boy who will someday become the King of England. Duchess and Duke of Cambridge, Kate Middleton and Prince William presented their child to the world. Icheoku says welcome to the world, future king of Britain and may you live long and thrive.

AMERICA BIDS FAREWELL TO NIGERIAN OIL?

Icheoku says if the US don't, China or India will or Nigerians might choose to DRINK it; afterall it is their oil and they can decide how they want to dispose it? Icheoku says no wonder all these Oil companies in Nigeria are beginning to divest their holdings therein and preparing to beat it and leave town asap. Anyway at least that will give a breather to the oil producing communities whose land and water are being destroyed by oil exploration and exploitation. There will be less oil spillage and pollution once America no longer needs as much oil as it gets now from Nigeria. One other good thing is that all those looters of state in Nigeria will have their swamps drained and out of business; thus making governance less attractive since the purpose of government therein is to control the looting apparatchik . Icheoku warns of this top speed freight train impending doom to whatever is left of the monolithic Nigerian economy once America says "See ya" to the Nigerian oil; BUT is Abuja listening?

NIGHT STALKER, STALKED BY DEATH

Icheoku says tired of waiting for the State of California to make up its mind and carry out the sentence of death by execution of the man who stalked and killed his victims (thirteen of them) back in the eighties, mother nature decided to take matters into her hand as it killed the man who killed so many. Richard Ramirez, a San Quentin death row inmate, died of liver failure, he was 53 years. Icheoku says may the spirits of those he dispatched man the gate of heaven and deny him entry therein and redirect him to his place - the hottest spot in hell. Ramirez, Icheoku says, stay in hell until it freezes over and since you worshiped Satan, this would be a good opportunity for it to reward your satanic work while you lived. To Hades, you go!

PINI JASON, REST IN PEACE.

“I write to create a living space for my children, and their generation. I write so that posterity will know that I saw my country sliding into self-destruction and I tried to do something about it.” - Pini Jason on why he writes in the way he writes. Icheoku says how about you? Why do you do what you do and do you do it in such a way so that posterity records you just like the pen-master continuously did until death snatched him away. Icheoku says who knows whether Jason (Pini) Onyeagbaduo was poisoned or died of stomach cancer or ruputured appendix; except that none of these matter any longer now that he is dead. Icheoku says adieu Pini Jason.

"DARK-SKINNED" BOSTON BOMBER WAS ACUTALLY "WHITE-SKINNED?"

Icheoku knew it was a matter of days before the security dragnet festooned on Boston after the Marathon bombing yielded a catch. Icheoku says congratulations to the men and women of Boston security outfit as well as the Federal agencies that assisted the operation. Icheoku however points out that "the dark-skinned" terrorist being expected never materialized. Anyway a white-terrorist is a white-terrorist whether it was just another "white-skinned" terrorist from Russian Chechyna; afterall they are all Caucasians. Unibomber was "white-skinned", Timothy McVeigh was "white-skinned," Atlanta Olympics bomber was "white-skinned," Abortion clinics bomber was "white-skinned," and a whole lotta other bombers so far whose skin had remained largely WHITE. Now the Boston Marathon bombers were equally "white-skinned." Despite this pattern, the white skinned John King of CNN said "a reliable source told him the terror suspect was "dark-skinned." Icheoku says this stray from skin-color should have triggered an alarm in John King's brain except that they were praying that another different race got into bombing terrorism business? Before Icheoku forgets, Osama Bin Laden was equally "white-skinned" for crying out loud. Icheoku is wondering whether John King will apologize to "dark-skinned" people of America for wishing them ill-luck and also if none Caucasians deserve a general additional apoology for what they have been and continued to be put through by these white-skinned" people? Anyway Congrats Boston for a job well done taking the two terrorist-brothers Tamaerlar and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev out of circulation and out of commission. Icheoku says if only IGP Mohammed of Nigeria can borrow a leaf from Boston on how to trap terrorists ditto those Boko Haram lunatics.

A SMILING POPE FOR A CHANGE THE WORLD CAN USE.

Icheoku asks when was the last time the world saw a really happy pope beaming with such infectitious smile and cracking funny jokes? Hopefully this amiable jolly fella from Argentina will succeed in wooing many deserters back to the church of Rome which they since left due to its drabness and holier than thou sanctimonious pretentions. Icheoku indeed likes what we are seeing so far of this new pontiff. Way to go Pope Francis.

OBASANJO IS DELUSIONAL, NEVER HAD A PAST?

If only humanity cannot remember the past, especially those of them hibernating in Nigeria, this Otta deity would have pretended for good measure that he never once presided over Nigeria or destroyed its democracy in every way possible and better still, did not seek to elongate his term in office contrary to the constitution. Hear him now beating his hand on his chest and applauding Ghana's democracy as if when he had similar opportunity in Nigeria, he delivered. What a joke this man is and a rude one for crying out loud.

PAULA BROADWELL, THE WOMAN WHO TOOK DOWN GENERAL PETRAEUS.

Icheoku admonishes men to learn to protect themselves by resisting these lecherous daughters of Eve as behind the downfall of every successful man is always another little Eve.

2012 CHAMPIONS, SF GIANTS.

10-30-12

ITS 'HORSES AND BAYONETS' FOR THE MITT.

Mitt Romney's mindset truly shows where his heart is - reset America to its cold war days with Russia and pretend that modern aircraft carriers and other amphibious battle ships never happened. What a man set in his ways this Mormon bishop is who wants America to take a gamble with him in the White House. Icheoku says never again shall America hire as a president someone who does not understand with certain clarity the foreign policy objectives of the country and who would recklessly rush America into a needless and avoidable war. This November VOTE OBAMA.

SENATOR ARLEN SPECTER IS DEAD.

Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter has died following complication from his cancer affliction. The senator was 82 years old. Icheoku prays that his soul find respite in God's bosom and that the family find solace in that he lived a fulfilled life in service of humanity. Adieu Senator.

CHINUA ACHEBE HAS A NEW BOOK, 'THERE WAS A COUNTRY', READ IT.

The man from whose stable came the much celebrated "Things Fall Apart" has written another book chronicling the suffering and hardship the genocidal Yakubu Gowon war inflicted on the people of Biafra. "There was a country" is set to be a best seller and Icheoku recommends this book for you as an insider's insight into the challenges which Biafrans overcame during their campaign to free themselves from the shackles called Nigeria.

PLANE WINDOWS AND ME - MITT.ROMNEY

Just wondering why they don't open so that I can sometimes just take in some fresh air like SEAMUS did strapped on the roof of my car for a 12 hour vacation journey. I will try to harvest the mechanism of how to make airplane windows open-able once am done with this campaign. At least my dog SEAMUS did not complain but enjoyed the fresh air and I intend to enjoy such 30000 feet above sea level.

GREEN MILE MICHAEL CLARKE-DUNCAN, DEAD AT 54.

They killed him before via electrocution but he lived. That was in the movie, Green Mile. That human giant was finally arrested by cardiac arrest and is now dead for real. Icheoku says may his soul rest in peace.

ETHIOPIA LOSES PRIME MINISTER

He was not Emperor Haille Sellassie but he was loved and admired by his people as well as some foreigners. However death took him away from them at a Brussels Belgian hospital. Prime Minister Meles Zenawi died of undisclosed sickness. Ethiopia is now the second African country to lose its serving leader within the past few months as Ghana had just buried her dead president. Good enough their transition was as smoothly handled as was Ghana's. RIP Zenawi.

STEVE, THE BLIND WONDER, DIVORCES WIFE NUMBER TWO.

Even a blind man knows when it is time to throw in the towel, of marriage that is; and so it is that the blind maestro and accomplished musician, Steve Wonder, is divorcing his wife number two of many years. Icheoku does not know about you but there is something about marriage that makes it near impossible to work; otherwise may someone with better knowledge explain it to Icheoku why all these divorces including by a blind man who ordinarily needs all the dependency of a sighted wife to live a more meaningful life? Anyway, Steve, welcome to the land of Splitsville.

IMMIGRATION PROBLEMS, ONE SOLUTION CENTER

REST IN PEACE ALEX.

Alex Okrent campaigned vigorously for the reelection of President Barack Obama from the Chicago Obama 2012 office before he slumped and died in the office on Saturday July 14, 2012. Alex was just 29 years old. Icheoku calls on all the young people of America not to let Alex Okrent's toil and death be in vain; elect President Obama in November and Alex would be happily rewarded for all his hard work. Adieu Alex and may your soul rest in peace.

CATHOLIC MONSIGNOR HEADS TO PRISON!

America, the land of equal opportunity for justice where everybody is under the law including a Monsignor of the Roman Catholic church has convicted Monsignor William Lynn of child endangerment resulting from his failure to protect alter-boys from randy homosexual Catholic priests. The Catholic convict formerly was of Philadelphia Diocese and will soon be trading his Monsignor cassock for prison jump suit. Who knows what Vatican must be thinking about the Americans who gave no damn about convicting one of the Holy Sea's top-heavy, a Monsignor. What a day.

DICK CHENEY'S LESBIAN DAUGHTER TIES THE KNOT.

Mary Cheney, a Lesbian homosexual and daughter of Vart Nadar Dick Cheney former George Bush vice president has married her long time partner of nearly twenty years Heather Poe. Now what would the conservative far right Republicans who hate everything and anything not "traditional" do or say now that one of their own, Dick Cheney, has a daughter in law via marriage to his own daughter Mary. Anyway Icheoku does not care who anyone chooses to sleep with or better still marry; therefore our congratulations to the newest homosexual couples in town.

TO THE KING OR QUEEN, MORE STUFF.

To the question what do you give to he or she who has almost everything, Icheoku says, more stuff. Just get him or her something as he or she could definitely use it or find a use for it or simply a place to put it. Since he or she is accustomed to being surrounded by much stuff, one other addition to the enviable riot ain't gonna spurn his or her equilibrium out of this universe! Go figure, Stingy fingers.

CONGRATULATIONS MADAM FACEBOOK!

Icheoku felicitates with the luckiest girl in the world. She is a medical doctor and now married to her longtime sweetheart of nine years courtship, Facebook billionaire Mark Zuckerberg. Dr Priscilla Chan has thus made the Facebook founder an honest man. They tied the nuptial knot as husband and wife Saturday May 19th, 2012. Icheoku wishes the young couple a happily-ever married life. Theirs is a case of true love, having met each other as "hungry college students", when neither of them was somebody in the material sense of it. Now the rest of the gawking world must butt out and allow the couple to enjoy their life in matrimony. Congratulations Mr and Mrs Facebook, Priscilla and Mark Zuckerberg.

DONNA SUMMER, DEAD OF LUNG CANCER.

The gal who worked 'hard for her money' and who sought 'unconditional love' in return for her affection, LaDonna Adrian Gaines, who in agreement with the material girl Madonna that you should to do whatever is necessary to make a headway in life, including changing your name if need be, and changed her name to simply "Donna Summer" has died. The Queen of Disco who rocked dance floors back in the day (70's) died of lung cancer; 5/17/12. Donna Summer was 63. Icheoku says may her soul rest in peace.

MARTIN "BIG MOMMA'S HOUSE" LAWRENCE JOINS THE ONCE MARRIED.

Comedian Lawrence Martin has taken up residence in Splitsville as he and his wife Shamicka have become witness to the ruse called marriage especially Hollywood ones where Kim Kardishian married for just 72days. Together for 17years, and Icheoku wonders where the devil found a crack in the door to get in. Anyway, it is marriage bondage which makes those "single but sometimes lonely" seem wise?

MIKE WALLACE JOINS OTHER DEPARTED 60 MINUTES HOSTS.

Another one of the dinosaurs of CBS 60 Minutes news program, Mike Wallace, has died; aged 93. Icheoku says there must be some accruable longevity benefit with working on the 60 Minutes program. Andy Rooney also died at age 93. Rest in peace Mike.

DENNIS RODMAN HITS FINANCIAL ROCK BOTTOM.

Dennis Rodman, the once baddest of the bad-boys that ever played in the NBA, faced with over $800,000 arrears of unpaid child(ren) support and a backlog of a $17000 per month spousal maintenance is on the verge of jumping off the cliff into complete financial ruins. Icheoku says what a mixed blessing that the fortune which once smiled on some of these superstars brought tales of woes to their doorsteps. Imagine "The Worm" so broke that he cannot even afford to pay retainer fees for his attorney. Yet another case of a once was great come to ruins and you wonder, boy, was the preacher in the bible right about vanity upon vanities, all is vanity.

BIANCA EMBODIES GRACE IN MOURNING,

Icheoku says Bianca Onoh-Ojukwu is the stuff loyalty, queens, princesses and first ladies are made of and fortunately enough she is a "princess of Wawaland" by birth and queen of Igboland by marriage to the one and only acknowledged true Igbo leader Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu. What a wife, who even in deep sorrow, looks so gracious it gives comfort. Icheoku is really very proud of this woman and pray that the good Lord speedy up her healing from the loss of her better half. Bianca, Icheoku says, Igbo people and indeed Nigerians in general are very proud of you for how you showed the world how to mourn a loved one. Take heart.

SARKOZY WANTS FRANCE FOR THE FRENCH ONLY?

Icheoku says the diminutive Frenchman Napoleon Bonaparte syndrome sufferer has turned a "Hitler"! Monsieur Nikolas Sarkozy now wants all none-white French to vacate the country since according to him, they are "too many foreigners on our territory" and France can longer accommodate them? Icheoku says here is a son of an Immigrant from Hungary now trying to bar other none French like his parents from coming into France. Query:- if such law were in effect when the elder Sarkozy migrated to France, would there be a French president named Nikolas Sarkozy today? It is all the I have crossed the bridge let it fall down selfishness which should not be allowed to make it to legislation. What a petty small minded individual that coughed up such discriminatory position statement.

SANDRA FLUKE, RUSH LIMBAUGH OVERREACHED HIMSELF AND SHOULD PAY A PENALTY.

Icheoku says without equivocation that redneck and women hater Rush Limbaugh certainly did himself in when he called a law student a slut and prostitute simply for having sex. As a consequence, his show should pay a steep price and possibly wind up like Murdock's News of the World newspapers in London. ANy listener of Rush Limbaugh;s diatribe knows that Rush does not mean well for America united and diverse; needless to say that President Obama has been the butt of all his talking points these last three years. Icheoku says let the hammer descend and let Rush Limbuaghs show come to a deserved end. Such a divisive hate-monger does not deserve a place in our mosaic American society and the opportunity to end his race-baiting could never have been any better. So with all the advertisers pulled let Icheoku see how any radio would profitably continue to carry such a horrible divisive scum called Rush Limbaugh's show.

ALLEN IVERSON, BROKE AND WONDERING WHERE HIS STASH WENT?

They never learn their lesson one would assume as another sports superstar falls from grace of being a multi-millionaire to the grass of a broke ass deadbeat. Allen Iverson of New York Knicks, Detroit Pistons, Philadelphia Sixers etc reportedly has blown through a $154 million pot of cash earned during his professional basketball career, excluding endorsements? Now his checks are no longer honored by banks as a recent check he wrote for $860,000 to pay for bling-bling bounced? Icheoku said and now what or better still, where were his financial advisors?

KABIRU SOKOTO, BOKO HARAM KINGPIN RE-CAPTURED?

Icheoku commends the security agencies in Nigeria for saving their face with the latest capture of Boko Haram fugitive Terrorist Kabiru Sokoto. Looking at his photograph, it appears those lunatic Boko Haram terrorists are not serious with their hatred for anything Western otherwise why is he spiffed up in Western Puma T-shirt, blue denim and looking not so wretched? Icheoku hopes that he gets the death penalty, unlike the previously arrested and tried terrorist who got a mere slap-on-the-wrist three years in the slammer. Way to go agents, just show them pepper and fry their gaunt Islamic terrorist asses.

SAM ALUKO TOO, DYING SEASON MAY BE?

The economist also traveled overseas to die in a London hospital? So long for the comatose healthcare facilities in Nigeria and these dying men could have, if they were patriotic enough, developed commensurate healthcare system in Nigeria; but did not. Anyway, Icheoku condoles his family on their loss.Professor Samu Aluko was 82years.

DANTATA IS DEAD!

Icheoku says another top Nigerian has died in a foreign hospital, surrounded by strangers whose strange language he hardly comprehended? If only he had made reasonable effort to develop healthcare services in Nigeria, may be he would have had the privilege of being surrounded by his people in his own country as he transited to the world beyond. Alhaji Abdulkadir Dantata of Kano died in Germany. Our condolence to his family.

MATTHEW MBU, DEAD AT 82.

Icheoku says and he died in a foreign hospital surrounded by strangers in a strange land. A man who was several times a functionary of the government has to scurry away to London to die? These government high-ups could have easily built hospitals in Nigeria to provide healthcare but would not and did not. Anyway, our condolence to his family.

THE HUMAN HOUR-GLASS?

Romanian model Ioana Spangenberg, dubbed the human hour-glass because of her perfect shape of 20-inch waistline and 32-inch hips. Who said anything about figure 8 but boy those Eastern European chicks got it and if in doubt ask The Donald.

MORMONS DELIVERS NEVADA TO ROMNEY?

The man who does not care about the poor, and who instead of investing in the US economy stashed his cash in Swiss banks, an ordained bishop of the Mormon church, Mitt Romney, cashed in on Mormon votes to win in Nevada, a state saturated by his cultist ilks. But the Southern baptists are yet to take their revenge on the man they have described as being in a CULT, so let Newt not be despaired.

"SOMEONE IN HERE HAS BROKEN UP A FAMILY." - REV RUSSELL MOORE.

Icheoku says that was a direct one at Newt Gingrich as he attended church service at Lutz Florida by Reverend Moore who delivered the special sermon. Anyway, Newt is shameless running on family values which he had severally defiled; his pretentious repentance notwithstanding. Icheoku calls on Florida voters to reject Gingrich as there can be no salvation after death; nor can anyone possibly teach an old dog new tricks. Newt Gingrich is not a fit and proper candidate for the Republican Party nor would he be right for the presidency.

NEW IGP's MISSION STATEMENT.

"I am aware of the challenges of the task ahead. But I am equal to the task because I am not a stranger to these things. My administration is going to be different from all the past Police leadership administration. The need to fight crime and criminality in the country, the need to fight corruption and indiscipline in the Police is my major task. This administration is not going to be business as usual. There is going to be major reorganization in the police. Postings of policemen to any duty will be based on merit and the ability to deliver. I need the cooperation of all including the media to help us succeed. Nigeria is bigger than any individual, therefore, we must join hands to salvage our nation." That is the new Inspector General of Police Mohammed Dikko Abubakar reading the riot act of his mission statement to which Icheoku adds, AMEN and prays that the IG lives up to his well articulated words.

SO LONG LIBYAN REVOLUTION, ENTER SHARIA-SEEKING ISLAMISTS.

Moummar Gaddafi warned and warned that Al-Queida is coming to take over but a rage saturated Western world would hear none of that. Today, the Islamists al-queida are demanding a Sharia-ruled Libya, making a joke of the relative secularism that had thrived in the North African desert country. Gaddafi is long dead and buried in an unmarked grave and is now unaware of the impending Islamic take over of Libya; but it is the Libyan people and the world that would face the coming tsunami of repression in the hands of those Sharia gun-ho Islamists. What a fate to befall an unsuspecting nation, now under the threat of limbs and body-parts being hacked out for the slightest infringement of their very rigid Sharia law. But where were these fundamentalists mullahs when Gaddafi held sway in Tripoli?

MITT ROMNEY HAS NO CORE - AMERICA BRIDGE 21ST CENTURY.

"Mitt Romney has no core and he will do and say anything to get elected" so said Rodell Mollineau, president of America Bridge 21st Century. He is once again alerting America about the con man Mitt Romney who wants to be president by all means possible including lying on his records and pretending to be everything to everybody provided he gets what he wants. Icheoku says when someone wants something so badly that he could say anything including calling day night and vice versa, it is in the society's interest that such person be stopped. Such a person cannot and does not deeply mean well for the society at large and must be told thanks but no. So America, you have been warned yet again that Mitt Romney is not good for America; so reject his candidacy.

"MOMMY, THE BABYSITTER HAS BEEN DOING THAT TO ME.”

While describing Penn State's former assistant football coach Sandusky's molestation charges to her eight year old child, a mother got a rude awakening when her son told her that the babysitter she hired to take care of him has been doing the same thing to him. What a world we live in where keepers of the gate become looters of the treasure as in this case where a dog has eaten the bone that was hung on its neck? What a perv this Jordan Liu is and hopefully he will be made to pay a price for it.

KOBE BRYANT DOGGED YET AGAIN, WIFE FILES FOR DIVORCE.

Icheoku says the foolish man who paid his wife off for having sex with a White hotel maid did not have a nuptial agreement with his soon to be ex-wife; who smartly have decided to walk away with half the basket ball player's fortune? Who knows what the beef was this time or did she catch Kobe Bryant with yet another White Trash and decided enough is enough. Anyway, thanks to "irreconcilable difference" omnibus reason for marital meltdown, the world might never know what the real and true knife in their butter is. However, Icheoku asks, who keeps the $4million diamond ring with which her "love" was purchased or should Icheoku say which she mortgaged her love following Kobe's criminal prosecution for allegedly raping a White hotel worker. Icheoku says this is another sad case of a basketball wife walking away to freedom with a man's hard earned money and possibly for another man's benefit. Vanessa Bryant and Kobe Bryant are no longer an item; another testimony that marriage is a ruse as it never works.

OJUKWU, HAS LOST A SECOND AND FINAL BATTLE?

Ikemba Nnewi and DIkedioranma of Igboland, Chief Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu has again lost another battle. The first was to Nigeria federalist army as leader of Biafra and this time to death. Like all mortals, we all shall die and this shall be our consolation as we mourn the demise of a very brave and courageous man who stood between a genocidal Nigerian federal army and the threatened peoples of the former Eastern region. He was 78 years old and died of diabetes related ailment? The question really should be not that he died but what legacy did he leave behind and in response, Icheoku says Ojukwu left indelible giant footprints in the sands of time; admitted he died in a foreign hospital and in a strange land like many Nigerian high-ups. To the family of the deceased, Icheoku says take heart. To Biafrans, it is time to re-articulate and reconfigure the way forward. Adieu Ikemba.

IBB FIRES BACK AT MAKU LABARAN

In response to Nigeria's Information Minister trying to specifically scapegoat him for all the woes of Nigeria dating back to 1986, the Evil genius growled from his den in Minna hilltop. According to the toothy fairy prince of Minna, Labran Maku does not deserve a response from him as he is "too carried away with his saxophonist job to remember simple history.” Icheoku adds but why did Mr Maku choose to make 1986 his reference point and not 1960 or 1970 or 1983 or better still why did he leave 1999 to 2007 out of his focal point? Anyway anybody in Ibrahim Babangida's shoes would similarly spring up to defend his record and not permit being so uncharacteristically singled out in such manner. Icheoku does not always agree with the evil genius but in this case, cannot disagree more with the manner the minister choose to pile up on IBB.

WORDS OF WISDOM BY DANNY BUCHIS

"The Bible tells us in Ephesians 6:16 to take up the shield of faith because your enemies are many. They want to stop you. They want to molest you. They want to humiliate you. They want you to walk through life hopelessly and miserably until wretchedly defeated." - Danny Buchis. Icheoku says what a truism that must and should practically be a guide to all our relationships, mindful of the fact that not all show of teeth is affectionate and admirable laughter. Quite an interesting words of wisdom to extend your life from Danny Buchis of Abuja Nigeria.

ALEX IBRU, PUBLISHER OF NIGERIAN GUARDIAN NEWSPAPER IS DEAD.

Another Nigerian high-up, publisher and member of the Ibru family of Agbhara-Otor, Delta State Nigeria, Alexander Uruemu Ibru, is dead. Alex Ibru died of cancer and Parkinson disease related illness; he was 66. Unlike so many well heeled Nigerians and top government officials who would rather die in strange land overseas surrounded by strangers, this high chief and business magnate choose to make his transition in Nigeria, surrounded by family and friends. He could have paid to go die in any foreign hospital of his choice throughout the world, but he chose not to and for this Icheoku commends his patriotic spirit. Regrettably, death is inevitable; admitted he cheated death once when the goons of late midget dictator of Kano, Sani Abacha, bullets could not silence him. May his soul rest in peace. It must be jubilation in the camp of Mustapha as his attempted murder charges of Alex Ibru automatically discharged since one cannot attempt the murder of a deceased person.

BOKO HARAM SUICIDE BOMBERS WILL GO TO HELL - GOVERNOR ALIYU

Icheoku says what does members of Boko Haram care afterall about going to hell? They were already in hopeless hellish condition which drove them to suicide bombing in the first place. Having tasted hell first hand by proxy of their suicide bombers obliterating themselves with bombs; so what the heck is hell anyway for these die-hard hell-raisers who have already trained and prepared themselves so well for a life in hell? Talk another thing jaare, Mr Governor Aliyu Babangida. Boko Haram is hell and hell is Boko Haram; like Caesar and Fear, they are both twins, littered on the same day and by the same mother, so no hell-shaking for Boko Haram!

JONATHAN FRETS AWAY $35BILLION FOREIGN RESERVE - OBASANJO?

The Otta deity is once again out and smoking; fussing about the drunken-sailor style of squandering of the nations foreign reserve since he left office. According to Baba-Iyabo, the $35billion he left in Nigeria's foreign reserves has been spent by the succeeding administration of Yar'Adua and Jonathan. In Obasanjo's very own street style manner of speaking, he said, "When we left that money, we thought we were leaving it for the rainy day. But my brother said the rain is falling now. The fact is that when the rain eventually starts falling, we will have nothing left to cover our heads with because we have blown it off." Icheoku says but what has Nigeria got to show for the huge amount but few bloated men and women who are well connected and partaking in the sharing of the pie!

DRIVING WHILE CRAZY IN LAGOS.

2.5 million Lagos drivers have mental disorder according to recent studies conducted by the Lagos State Ministry of Health. That is an average of 14.1% of the total Lagos State population or 1 in every 5 Lagos residents - Dr. Jide Idris, Lagos State Commissioner for Health. Icheoku says you now know why the road rage and road carnage exist. In other nations, you have DWI or DUI - driving while intoxicated or driving under the influence; in Lagos Nigeria, you have DWC or DWM - driving while crazy or driving while mental !

WORDS OF WISOM

Without opportunities, abilities are wasted and without abilities, opportunities arise in vain. - The Sage.

WORDS TO LIVE BY

One who is born a prince and loses his dominion through imprudence, wins a double disgrace. The Sage.

POWER MINISTER SABOTAGING POWER SUPPLY - ITA EYANG

Icheoku says one needs the suspension of disbelief to accept the allegation that a minister charged with supplying power to Nigerians would turn around to sabotage his effort. Icheoku is usually not on the side of Nigerian government officials, but this case calls for an exception as what is alleged is highly improbable. It is akin to a dog eating the bone which was hung on its neck. Hopefully it is not the beginning of the usual Nigerians gang-up against anything and everything Igbo with Power Minister Professor Barth Nnaji, an Igboman, being their latest target. Icheoku however adds that Senator Ita Eyang should rather explore ways of legislating out the use of power generators in Nigeria as the mafia that controls the trade on generators are the ones sabotaging power supply in Nigeria and not the Power Minister.

GOT MONEY, VALUE MONEY.

Money is like manure, it does no good until it is spread around. So do something with that stash of yours today and see it do something through people tomorrow. Always remember, the value of money is what money can buy or purchase.

WORDS OF WISDOM.

It is not a virtue to betray one's friends, to act without faith or without religion; such may win temporary dominion but certainly not glory.

JOE FRAZIER, MOHAMMED ALI'S BOXING NEMESIS IS DEAD.

Rumble in the Jungle, thriller in Manila as well as many other popular sayings in boxing were as a result of his punching power coupled to Ali's. At last the man known as the Smokin Joe is no more; he died of liver cirrhosis aged 67. Icheoku says despite his taunts of Mohammed Ali for his Parkinson disease, Ali has outlived Joe. May his soul rest in peace.

KIM KARDASHIAN SNEAKS DIVORCE ON UNSUSPECTING HUSBAND?

Women, what would they not do; but were it a man that pulled such a fast one, feminists the world over would have screamed blue-murder heartless! So it is that celebrity Kim Kardashian just filed for divorce from her husband of 72 days Kris Humpheries, without first discussing it with him. Now the devastated heart-broken man wants to trade his arm to have Kim back, despite just finding out from the media that he is being divorced by his wife? Icheoku says that shows there was real "LOVE" in the first place; but give it up for Hollywood - the land of plastics; as yet goes another plastic marriage contrapted just for Television ratings! Or could it be that height-challenged and disadvantaged Kim got tired of standing on platforms each time she wants to kiss her soon to be ex-man, who knows; Icheoku is just asking?

SAMSON SIASIA OUSTED.

Icheoku saw it coming when we implored Nigerians not to accept his apology for failing to qualify against Guinea. Our bone with Siasia, a home-based coach, who we had supported his appointment is that he took his beef with goalkeeper Enyema rather too far. A rational man in his position should have been a sportsman by forgiving whatever sins the goalkeeper committed and played him to enable Nigeria qualify; but no, his ego came between, resulting in Nigeria's ouster from the championship. Anyway, what a good riddance.

OBAMA ON DEAD GADDAFI

"Obviously, you never like to see anybody come to the kind of end that he did, but I think it obviously sends a strong message around the world to dictators that people long to be free, and they need to respect the human rights and the universal aspirations of people." Icheoku says it is true and asks, why not extend the same Gaddafi treatment to Syria, Iran, Yemen and possibly Bahrain as what is good for the goose is also good for the gander. Let it become an "Obama universal doctrine of general application" and not a selective one!

POWER ADDICTION KILLED GADDAFI.

According to one great thinker, those who make peaceful change impossible make violent change inevitable. Icheoku says if only Moummar Gaddafi had read the passage as published, may be he would have received a better funeral with a more proper lying in state as befits a head of state? A food for your thought for all you despots of this world that shamelessly cling to power absolutely.

HERMAIN CAIN STILL BEATING RICK PERRY AND MITT ROMNEY IN THE POLLS?

Yes, say it ain't true, but that is the reality of now that a nigger from the deep south is beating two White establishment candidates in the run-up to the Republican Party's primaries? The latest poll finds Mister 999, flip-flopper, Herman Cain, still leading establishment candidate Mitt Romney and Texan Rick Perry in the likely voters choice for Republican presidential candidate. Icheoku says what an irreconcilable irony that a Republican Nigger is now being engineered to face-off a Democratic Nigger in the biggest political Nigger-fight of the century? The good news however is that it will not happen as the good ole Whiteboys owners of the Republican Party will not let a nigger fly their confederate presidential flag into the election 2012.

GADDAFI, EVEN HIS FRIENDS THE RUSSIANS COULD NOT SAVE HIM?

Icheoku sometimes wonder if certain friendships, especially those who would not be there in hours of need is indeed worth the effort trying to keep it? Icheoku believes that were Russia vehement enough what happened in Libya would not have happened; and the likelihood of persuading Gaddafi into exile would have been higher. But hey, friends for business are just there for the pie and not for the Joe-Cracker who is delusional about his power or the love of his country people for him.

HAMID KARZAI, DOUBLE-FACED JANUS WILL FIGHT AGAINST USA?

Afraid of having his head blown off by Pakistan sponsored turban-wearing mullah/suicide bomber, the US handpicked, installed and protected but ungrateful president of Afghanistan has turned a traitor! Hamid Karzai vowed to take up arms against the United States of America, thereby biting the finger that feeds him and this latest threat by Karzai must not go unpunished. Icheoku says it is about time the United States changed their policy on Karzai from love to hate and let this mullah face his certain and assured demise in the hands of the Taliban. How dare this little man of Kabul say that he will take sides with America's enemies and Pakistan to fight against America in event of hostilities between the two countries; yet America spends her blood and purse trying to maintain this guy in power? Icheoku says now that the real America-hating Karzai has fully taken off his mask of deception, it is time he is left to his fate and marooned in the Taliban infested Afghanistan to purchase his one-way ticket to meet with his 70 virgins? The other time he threatened to take up suicide vests and join suicide-bombing Talibans to kill Americans in Afghanistan and now followed it with his second threat against the security interest of America? Something has to be done about it and fast; Hamid Karzai does not worth any American taxpayers cent being expended on his security and provision - cut the darn guy off and do it NOW Washington!

POPE BENEDICT XVI IS A NAZI - SUSAN SARANDON?

"The last one. Not this Nazi one we have now." With those words, referring to the former and present popes, actress and activist Susan Saradon said the current Catholic Pope and Bishop of Rome, Benedict XVI "is" a member of the Nazi party that fermented Jewish holocaust. Icheoku does not understand why she is being called out for her remarks since it is on record that the pope was once a registered member of the Nazi party youth wing and there are photos to vouch for it. Anyway blame political correctness for all these sensitivities.

A BLOODY CLEANSING OF NIGERIA IS REQUIRED - DR JUNAID MOHAMMED?

Dr Junaid Mohammed has advocated for a bloody cleansing of Nigeria in order to clean house and move the country forward. According to him, "Nigeria will be better off if we shoot some people." Icheoku says a persuadable idea; but where do we start and/or stop since practically every Nigerian have sinned and fallen short of the glory.

THUNDER STRIKES, BLAME IT ON PRESIDENT OBAMA - ANITA PERRY.

Anita Perry, wife of Texas Governor Rick Perry, the man who wants to be Republican Party's presidential candidate in 2012 has blamed President Barack Obama for her son's resignation from his bank job in order to campaign for his dad? Icheoku says ridiculousness has never got this ridiculous that a voluntary act of a full grown trust-fund kid is now being blamed on the president. Anyway, little surprise that Texas is not known for producing very bright minds; so pardon the first lady wanna be for throwing up mud and hoping it will stick. In her own words, she said "My son Griffin had to resign his job at Deutsche Bank because of SEC [Securities and Exchange Commission] Federal regulations that says he can't go out and campaign with his father still employed? My son lost his job because of this administration! What a shame and this is the woman that would be micro-managing her husband Rick Perry should he get into the White House? Icheoku says luckily enough the Perrys did not blame President Obama for the Texas wildfires and unseasonable drought.

UKRAINE JAILS PRIME MINISTER FOR DOING HER JOB?

Yulia Tymoshenko, the former Prime Minister of Ukraine was jailed for seven years for "negotiating a gas deal with Russia in 2009?" Icheoku says ridiculous cannot have any better definition than this judicial persecution of a political opponent in Ukraine. How can negotiating a deal which was in the national interest of a country become a punishable offense; moreso when such was not expressly excluded by constitution; or does the present authorities in Kiev wish that Ukrainians were allowed to freeze to death during the threatened Russia's oil embargo or cut-off. What an incredible abuse of the judicial process by the executive in Kiev; hopefully the higher court will throw out the kangaroo conviction unless they are equally compromised. What a shame.

NATION'S CUP OUSTER, SIASIA'S APOLOGY NOT ACCEPTED!

Coach Samson Siasia was ostensibly not sensitive enough to winning the qualifying match and to Nigerians at large who cut his paycheck. Any other reasonable coach, worth his office and pay, would have thrown all he got in both manpower and technical expertise to qualify and secure Nigeria a berth in the next edition of African Nations Cup competition. But an arrogant and egotistic Siasia insisted on his suspension of the only proven able and tested hands Enyema, the safest hands Nigeria squad have at the present and now the depressing result and ouster from the competition. Icheoku says whatever the Nigeria football authority decides to do to him or his contract in ritaliation is well deserved, as only an obstinate coach would go ahead and refuse one of his best goalkeepers around in such a crucial make or mar qualifying match. Icheoku says Nigeria should therefore reject his apology as unacceptable in the circumstance.

OAKLAND RAIDERS' AL DAVIES IS DEAD.

Icheoku sympathizes with the Raider Nation on the loss of the excitable hands-on owner and fan numero uno of The Raiders, Al Davies, who passed on today Saturday October 8, 2011. Al was 82 years. Now at least the coach can have the freedom of fielding players who trained in the field of play instead of having players imposed on him by an owner who thinks because he writes the check he can also determine who got to play. May his soul now rest in peace. Hopefully there is NFL Franchise in the world beyond to keep him going; Adieu Al.

APPLE'S STEVE JOBS IS GONE.

Icheoku says adieu Mr I-this, I-that; your journey through this world was not in vain and we shall truly miss your inventive ingenuity. Meanwhile Icheoku will be picking up the new I-Phone 4S as a tribute. So long Stevie!

DOGS KILL DOG-CATCHER?.

It happened in Nigeria, the land under siege by Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram, where armed robbers stormed the residence of a police officer in charge of eradicating armed robbery and shot him to death. To add insult to injury, they also shot and killed his 22year old daughter, which in the words of a neighbor is "the revenge of the robbers?" According to him, "John was the officer in charge of anti-robbery. It is very possible that the hoodlums came for revenge." Icheoku queries if armed robbers could so audaciously invade the residence of a police chief and kill him in this manner, what then is the fate of the ordinary Joe-Nigerian in Nigeria who is not authorized to pack heat? Our condolence to the slain John Ibizugbe's family of 5 Martha Williams Street, Asorobi, Agbado, Lagos, Nigeria.

SHEHU LADAN, ANOTHER TOP NIGERIAN DIES IN A FOREIGN HOSPITAL?

Icheoku says another top-heavy Nigerian has shamelessly died in a foreign hospital where he ran away to thinking that would save his sorry arse? The former Group Managing Director of Nigeria National Petroleum Company, NNPC, Shehu Ladan, died of undisclosed illness at a Qatari hospital in Dubai; but from his womanly-physique he probably was suffering from renal problem and diabetes? His money was not able to purchase him health, not even in a foreign hospital from where his dead body will now be flown back to be interred in the same Nigeria he ran away from to seek medical treatment. Anyway, what a great leveler death is, otherwise some of these people who have failed to do right by and for Nigeria with all the opportunities they have had, would have even bribed death to only kill those Nigerians who could not afford foreign medical trips. Our condolences to the bereaved family.

LOTTERY WINNERS BEWARE, THAT MONEY MIGHT KILL YOU!

"Sudden wealth is a life-changing event. If you have a bad habit, it makes it worse. Addiction problems gets magnified. People think that money cures problems, but it really magnifies them." - Don McNay.

NIGERIAN MERCENARIES KILLED, FIGHTING IN LIBYA?

Icheoku does not want to believe the story that some Nigerians were actively fighting for the deposed former Libyan strongman and that they were killed during a fire-fight. Even for the sake of argument that they were mercenaries, they ought to know that the game was up with the fall of Tripoli. Icheoku honestly think that those anti-black African Arabs executed the three Nigerians in cold blood and blamed it on the ongoing war in Libya. Ugochukwu Okafor, 33; Emeka Aloysius Mohammed, 32 and Braimoh Garba, 30 appear likely to have been stranded in Libya enroute Europe and were unfortunately caught up in the Libya revolution which have now claimed their youthful lives. Icheoku says may their striving souls now rest in peace.

NIGERIA TURNS 51, HAPPY INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSARY.

Icheoku says as motherland turns fifty one years old today, some people say there is no need celebrating as there is nothing to celebrate. Icheoku says in as much as things could be better, but there are lots that could provide reason to celebrate:- the ever restive Nigeria military have finally realized their place and are no longer toppling governments; also despite the challenges of security and all the jaw-jaw, Nigerians for most part still love themselves and want to remain one country; at least there was election or its simulation as well as so many other things including the seamless transition. Anyway, happy anniversary Nigeria.

AKHWAT AKWOP CHRISTIAN TERRORIST GROUP, COUNTERS BOKO HARAM?

Icheoku says never a time is violence or threat of it justified and it does not matter if it is by Islamic fundamentalists or christian zealots. Early crusaders are known to some as equally terrorists? Now tired of the menace which is Boko Haram, a christian group, Akhwat Akwop, has formed its own terror-squad to checkmate the Islamic Boko Haram in Nigeria. Icheoku says this is not the answer or solution and therefore calls on the supposedly christian terror group to please sheath their sword. They should remember the biblical injunction "Thou shall not kill"; and also that the Lord Jesus Christ represented and preached peace. He it is who first stated that vengeance is mine says the Lord. Two wrongs does not make a right and Icheoku calls on Akhwat Akwop to advise itself of this and not to join the madness as represented by Boko Haram, currently laying siege on country.

CBS 60 MINUTES ANDY ROONEY, FINALLY WALKS AWAY?

Icheoku says it was a thing since long overdue for CBS to spare viewers of he unsightly too old to still hold a job great grandpa on our televisions. Icheoku thought also that Andy Rooney was out to fulfill his earlier pledge to vacate his seat on a gurney; but at last reason has prevailed and the apparition will no longer haunt our televisions any more. At 92 years old, it does not matter how good any person is, just the straggling eyebrows, wrinkly skins and loose-hanging jowls makes it simply too tortuous to see on our televisions and Icheoku makes bold to add that were Andy Rooney a blackman or a woman or any other minority person in America, he would have been canned long ago. Anyway, what a riddance although somewhat too late in coming; and may the great grandpa now spend whatever is left of his natural life, enjoying his children, grand-children and great grand children. So long Rooney.

NOBEL LAUREATE PROFESSOR WANGARI MUTA MAATHAI OF KENYA IS DEAD

Environmentalist and activist aka the environmental Amazon of Kenya, Wangari Muta Maathai has died; aged 71, of Ovarian cancer - the same stuff that killed Miriam Babangida. She founded the Green Belt Movement through which she waged fights against deforestation in Kenya and for which she won the Nobel in 2004. Icheoku says may her soul rest in peace.

FOLSOM STREET FAIR, SAN FRANCISCO CALIFORNIA, USA!

Icheoku says it is the real be all you can be place as men magically change into women and women into man. Pictured is one of the guys who would rather be a woman; but hey, if that is what makes his life go on who is Icheoku to say stop. So keep on keeping on San Franciscans as everyone has just one life to live. What a make-up indeed?

DIZEANI, INDEED VERY BEAUTIFUL.

Icheoku reiterates that this particular woman, Nigeria Minister for Oil is indeed beautiful and happy are those eyes that first befall her each morning as she wakes up to see the rising sun. What a creature of inestimable beauty she is - just look at those eyeballs.

DOMINIQUE STRAUSS KAHN, SEX WITH JANITOR IS A MORAL FAILURE.

Icheoku says give it up to the French horn-dog DSK Strauss Kahn whose romp with a hotel cleaning lady Nafissatou Diallo made recent scandalous headlines of powerful men behaving badly? The French man now says he is contrite about his uncontrolled libido and that he disappointed numerous people. According to him, "it was a failing, a failing vis-a-vis my wife, my children and my friends but also a failing vis-a-vis the French people, who had vested their hopes for change in me. It was a moral failing and I am not proud of it. I regret it infinitely. I have regretted it everyday for the past four months and I think I'm not done regretting it." Icheoku asks, when is Mr Dominique Strauss Kahn going to apologize to the janitor for not paying for a blow-job rendered to him or just simply write her a check for the agreed fee and for her pain and suffering. Icheoku has always maintained that whatever took place between the two was consensual and that the maid got smart or rather mad after DSK reneged on their agreed term of rendering her knob-polishing contract. Or may be it the Frenchy-way of doing business just to receive?

EVICTED GREAT GREAT GRAND MA GETS BACK HOME.

Icheoku says what a relief that the 101 year old great great grand mother who was evicted from her home of sixty years has won a reprieve. US Department of Housing and Urban Development said Texana Hollis can move back to her home and it will pay on her behalf the past-due taxes, the reason she was evicted in the first place. Icheoku commends this good Samaritan act of HUD and affirms that it is close to a moral obligation not to evict a 101 year old great great ma from her home of past sixty years.

NO FREE LUNCH IN AMERICA, GREAT GRAND MOTHER EVICTED!

Icheoku says give it up for capitalism without soul as callous possessors evicted a 101 year old great great grandmother from her home of over sixty years in Detroit Michigan. What a world we are turning into where Tea Party supporters at a Republican Party's presidential nomination bid debate cheered to allow poor and uninsured Americans to just die and die quickly instead of wasting tax payers money on them? Anyway 101 year old Texana Hollis must be questioning her maker why He kept her alive for too long to see such a day when such a fate would befall her despite her very advanced age. Icheoku says, where are all those philanthropic Americans to the rescue of great grand Nana.

EGYPT BURNS ISRAELI EMBASSY

Icheoku says, just say no to vandalism of any kind, whether it is against Israeli embassy in Cairo or any other; it is simply not a good testament to a people. No more such acts Egyptians; please do not spoil the goodwill which you secured when you took your country back from Hosni Mubarak last February. Just build your democracy first and let other things be taken care of later.

UNITED STATES OF EUROPE NEEDED - GERHARD SCHROEDER

The former Germany Chancellor, Gerhard Schroeder, made a case for a United European government that will stand and compete with other united blocs of the world. According to him, "The current crisis makes it relentlessly clear that we cannot have a common currency zone without a common fiscal, economic and social policy. We will have to give up national sovereignty. From the European Commission, we should make a government which would be supervised by the European Parliament. And that means the United States of Europe." Icheoku agrees that those Europeans should pawn up their unnecessary national pride respectively and embrace a united bloc that will really empower them to compete globally instead of this pinch-penny quasi union of Euro-zone and currency. The way forward is to either go the full hog and assimilate or dissolve whatever it is they currently have and be extension, put an end to all this pretended unity. Icheoku therefore aligns itself to the former Chancellor's position and states that a United States or Countries of Europe is a thing which time has since come.

MARRIAGE AND THE COMPANIONSHIP QUESTION?

If truly people marry to keep themselves company among other things, including purse and copulation, Icheoku is at sea on what becomes of this fabled companionship at the demise of a party to the marital contract? So how does the surviving spouse then feel this companionship void since people tend to miss something more when they once had it unlike when they never knew any difference? Your thoughts please as some society's positions on certain things defies every reason and illogical at best.

DEPORTATION FEVER, DOUBLE WAHALLA FOR NAFISSATOU DIALLO?

Unconfirmed sources hinted that the "dirty" African accuser of white Frenchman Dominique Strauss Kahn may be shipped back to the dark continent? Anyway if it is true she lied about her sexual favors, she deserves all that she gets as her tale suggests a sexual blackmailer who wanted to use her genitalia to realize her American Dream? Soon and very soon she will be having an African Nightmare in her native Guinea instead. Never been wrongly accused, you will not understand what DSK possible went through; admitted he cheated on his dutiful wife.

BEING INCESTUOUS IS DIFFERENT FROM BEING A FOOL.

Icheoku says once again the grammar-challenged Babangida has shown that he lacks real grasp of the very issue presented in his current battle of wits with Obasanjo. Babangida's attempt to equate Obasanjo's alleged incestuous relationship with his son's wife as tantamount to being a fool falls flat because the two are not analogous. According to IBB, "being called a fool at 70, especially by a man reportedly accused by his own son of incest, is at best a compliment." Icheoku says not so Mister Evil Genius, as being a fool is never complimentary and having sexual dalliance with one's daughter in-law is at best morally wrong but definitely not foolishness. At least the Otta deity was smart enough to get some, admitted from his son's wife Mojisola; but foolish men don't even know how to go about getting any.

THE WORLD MEANS CONFLICT, SO TAKE IT AS IS.

"In so far as human-beings live in a world full of contradictions and opposing forces, it is impossible to conceive of good without evil, just as day answers night; light replies darkness, cold stands against hot and heaven opposes earth." - The teachings of Buddha.

BABANGIDA IS A FOOL SAYS OBASANJO?

"A regret at 70 is a regret too late. Well a regret at 70 is a regret to the grave." - Olusegun Obasanjo response to Ibrahim Babangida who called his government "Complete Failure!"

NASIR EL RUFIA, ANOTHER AGENT OF SHARIA AND THE IMPENDING JIHAD?

Icheoku says it is becoming increasingly obvious that the mullahs of the north are up to no good and are trying their possible best to provoke a war? First Rufai went to London and cast aspersion on the president's election, he was briefly invited for questioning when the Chief Imam himself, Buhari, threatened and demanded his immediate release. Then enter Sanusi's Islamic Banking bait and now Nasir is again accusing Obasanjo of impropriety at privatisation but failed to disclose why he did not resign from office then as a consciencious objector? All of a sudden as if from the heavens Babangida barges in through the door and slammed Obasanjo? Icheoku says President Jonathan and the rest of other Nigerians will be naive not to see the handwriting on the wall and start planning for the D-day. If it quacks like a duck and walks like one, it might as well be a duck and Icheoku says these piling on is not for nothing.

AUGUSTUS AIKHOMU, BABANGIDA'S ACCOMPLICE, IS DEAD!

Icheoku congratulates the late Admiral Augustus Aikhomu for at least dying in Nigeria; unlike his other counterparts high-up Nigeria former government officials who embark on overseas medical tourism whenever they take ill, only to eventually die in such foreign hospitals, alone and lonely. These officials could have developed medical centers of excellence in Nigeria for all to access but their wickedness and selfishness did not let them. Moreso because they could easily afford to travel abroad anytime to seek the best care available so why should they bother with fixing a decayed medical system back home.Icheoku also says anybody who could conveniently collude with Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida in the annulment of June 12 election should not be missed by Nigerians, not even in death. Therefore Aikhomu's death is not a biggie and we pray the good Lord hasten the demise of all that contributed in keeping Nigeria down and out all these years since independence. Icheoku does not belong to the school of sycophancy that blows with the wind and sings undeserving praises each time some sentimental opportunity rears its head, regardless of the person's antecedents. Our condolences however goes to the bereaved family on their loss. Aikhomu was 70 plus and died of prostrate cancer.

THE BIAFRAN GIRL, VICTIM OF YAKUBU GOWON'S INDUCED KWASHIOKOR.

Genocidal Yakubu Gowon committed war crimes during Nigeria/Biafran war by using starvation of women and children as an instrument of war. This picture of a Biafran girl, a victim of Gowon's hyper-malnutrition war tactic, is placed here as a remembrance and prayer for the dear leader of Biafra, Chief Odumegwu Ojukwu. Admitted that he did not succeed, but it could have been worse if not for his intervention and for this the people of Biafra forever woes him their gratitude. Icheoku hopes that the latest 'IM' on his demise is not true and we pray and remember him for all that he sacrificed on behalf the Biafran people.

TRUE AND REAL LOVE !

To love is to assume that beyond outward signs of affection that one also trusts in that other person's heart.

A WORD ON THE MARBLE

'The success or comfort of life is not in the material things we surround ourselves with, it is truly dependent on the number and quality of relationships it forges.' - Dom Robert Le Gall, philosopher and thinker.

A CASE OF NZA THE BIRD AND THE OSTRICH?

It usually does not take them time before blabbing out the comparisons and Icheoku wonders on what basis? Anyway what can Icheoku add to our dear Ghana Must Go very pointy remark other than to say 'beeni' - the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help Nigeria dear God.

'ABIOLA WAS KILLED BY PEOPLE UP THERE'- MUSTAPHA.

“Those people who stood against Abiola are people that are high up there that cannot be brought to court. Abiola slumped with his face down on the grounds, how come all those that were there with him in the room didn’t help him?” - Major Hamza Mustapha giving evidence of the conspiracy and complicity involved in Chief MKO Abiola's death through poison with arsenic-laced tea? Icheoku says if only President Jonathan is man enough to use this case to turn into a real statesman by investigating all the fingered parties to unravel how Nigeria killed or was complicit in the killing of her president-elect Chief Moshood Kashimawo Oluwole Abiola?

SAM LOCO EFE, NOLLYWOOD'S GREAT IS DEAD !

Icheoku has learnt that Sam Loco Efe, popular Nollywood actor and comedian, whose career help jump-start the Nigeria's Nollywood movie industry is dead. Sam who was recuperating from a brief illness; died in his hotel room at Rapour Hotel, Amakaohai, along Orlu road in Owerri, Imo state Nigeria. He was 66. Icheoku says may his soul and all other departed rest in peace.

WORDS OF WISDOM, NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER.

Men judge by what they see rather than what they truly experienced or felt. They judge by their eyes rather than by their touch as all men can see a thing but only a few of them can come close enough to touching it. All men will see what you seem or appear to be but only a few of them will truly understand or know who you really are through an encounter. Therefore always inform your decisions against the backdrop that in the course of your life, many will misunderstand you, misjudge you and above all, wrongly judge you based on their jaundiced perception of who you are because they do not truly know you and remember, it is most always very difficult for the many to be convinced by the few.

EDWIN UMEZOKE, ANOTHER NIGERIAN HIGH-UP DIES IN A FOREIGN HOSPITAL?

Icheoku says once again another Nigeria "big man" and former speaker of House of Representative in the second republic, Chief Edwin Umezoke has died in a foreign hospital in faraway India where he went on a medical pilgrimage only to give up his ghost. Umezoke was 76 years old and died lonely in a foreign land.Shamelessly, he is one of those Nigerians who had an opportunity to make some difference including in the health care services industry but didn't just because he could afford foreign medical services? Anyway death does not know who can travel to India to die or who would only afford that quack under Niger bridge head. As Icheoku extends our sympathy to the family of the bereaved, we urge Nigerian officials to strive to bring home to Nigeria those services they seek abroad. It is a shame that this medical tourism and pilgrimage is continuing till this day in Nigeria.

WORDS OF WISDOM

"It is only through trials and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved." - Hillary Clinton, US Secretary of State.

BOKO HARAM IS NORTHERN NIGERIANS SPONSORED TERRORIST OUTFIT.

Icheoku says the only reason those Northern Nigerian mullahs are hurriedly asking for JTF to leave Maiduguri and for amnesty to be granted those Islamic terrorists is because they are afraid the net is closing in on them. They are sponsors of Boko Haram Islamist terrorists and are afraid of being outed, hence the rush to get the menace over with quickly before they will be implicated. How can these mullahs suddenly open their mouths calling for security operations to end when Boko Haram is still setting off bombs and killing innocent Nigerians when they have been keeping quiet as the whirl wind they sowed blows everything wide apart. Icheoku says if only President Jonathan has what it takes to get at these uncircumsized desert dwellers and have them tried and shot for treason. Who is fooling who; and who are Boko Haram if not these mullahs parading themselves as leaders of the North?

A WORD OF WISDOM.

"People laugh at other people's misfortunes forgetting that everyone will have a fair share of bad times. Karma happens, so tread softly and judge not." - Frank Edoho

AS NEW YORK GOES GAY-HO, CAN CHILDREN BE SPARED OF THE DRAMA?

Icheoku has no beef with who anyone chooses to love or marry, including cats and dogs or in some cases Sequoia trees; but it would be a fair practice not to overtly involve innocent children in the politics of gay marriage. This little angel has nothing to do with this and is very oblivious of what is going on and Icheoku suggests that whoever custodian that planted her to play this role should reconsider next time not to use a child in this manner. Just leave them out of adults politics, period. Anyway congratulations to all the New Yorkers Born this way on their historic day of tying the nuptials.

JONATHAN IS SIMPLY TIMID, HOSTING CAMERON IN LAGOS..

Icheoku says that trip to Lagos by President Goodluck Jonathan to host British Cameron is ill advised as Abuja is Nigeria's seat of power and if Cameron cannot accommodate a trip to Abuja, his meeting with the president should have been rescheduled for another more convenient future time. It is very demeaning indeed that the president should heed the Brit's preferred location of meeting and be the one going to meet Cameron instead of the other way round. Anyway, that is what happens when one usurps an office which is not naturally his at this time and have to pander to every Tom, Dick and Harry to appear to be in control, for protection and in order to be accepted. Aso Rock is Nigeria's 10 Downing Street and not State House Marina Lagos.

ALADE ABANIWONDA, A FRUSTRATED NIGERIAN POLITICIAN COMMITS SUICIDE?

Icheoku says, but why didn't someone tell this man that politics is a game of gain and lose; and that it is for gamblers and gamblers do not commit suicide just because they lost as there will always be a next time? Anyway, it is possible that it is the loans he owes the banks, with which he financed his both failed senatorial and ministerial ambitions, that actually pushed him over the ledge; except of course it is the African magic remote control that was used by his "enemies" to hypnotized him into taking his own life. Icheoku says it is cowardice for anyone to take one's own life and Al-Mustaim Alade Abaniwonda does not deserve anyone's sympathy. To the family however, our condolences.

SEAN HOARE, WHEN WHISTLE BLOWING COULD COST LIFE IN LONDON?

Icheoku hitherto thought that it was exclusive Russia's Kremlin to order hit on "enemies of the mother Russia"; but now it would appear that if that enemy is against a corporation, the same Russian treatment could be mete out to such loud-mouth? Just speculating as the British Police have so far not ruled anything in or out of the sudden death of the man who blew the lid off FoxNews owner Rupert Murdock's British company phone tapping scandal. Sean Hoare a former staffer was found dead in his home and icheoku joins millions of others in saying the coincidence at this time of bright searchlight being beamed on Mr Murdock's business practices in the UK is rather too surreal. So watch your backs, you rattle snakes out there waiting to pull the rug off the feet of your employers.

ATIKU ABUBAKAR, NOW MISTER "I HAVE BEEN VINDICATED?"

First he said that Ngozi Okonjo-Iwealla vindicated him on Nigeria's unhinged recurrent expenditure which gulps 75 percent of the revenue leaving little or nothing for investment on job creating ventures. Now he claims that Mallam El Rufai has also vindicated him on the "sell-off of Nigeria's assets going on under President Jonathan?" Icheoku calls on Nigerians to recall that Atiku himself did his fair share of privatization of Nigeria's assets while supervising same as Nigeria's vice president; so you now know who is pointing fingers!

GLENN BECK CHASED OUT OF NEW YORK, LANDS IN TEXAS!

Icheoku says now the racist white pig has finally rendezvous with his natural habitat where he can finally become fully initiated into the Ku Klux Klan. A poisonous and misleading talking-head who brought more odium and ridicule to FoxNews than credit. Anyway having been declared persona non grata in NYC, Texas provides a good dump for such bigoted piece of humanity and together with Governor Perry, they can now secede to their warped independent Aryan country of their ilks - those few stupid white people who think only them deserves a life. They can then exists as they deem fit but leave the rest of other decent humanity alone here in the United States of America. Good riddance of a bad rubbish both by the suddenly seemingly repentant FoxNews and the big apple, NYC.

THEIR WAY OR THE HIGH WAY, WOMEN?

Happy wife, happy life! This is exactly the toast a woman proposed at her husband's recent birthday party which Icheoku attended. Now you know; so if you don't want to be constantly sent to the dog house or to hell while still hanging around here on earth or even prematurely to meet with your maker, just learn how to always suck it up, shut the heck up and tag along. Did Icheoku hear you say you're right?

'HAVING A CHILD IS GOOD BUT IT IS NOT A DUTY' - BETTY FORD.

Icheoku says adieu Betty Ford, former first lady of late President Gerald Ford, who has just gone to rejoin her husband. Betty was 93 years old and would be most remembered for speaking candidly on issues as well as her love and addiction to the bottle. So long Betty!

WHAT TO DO WITH LOVE - PASS IT ON !

Icheoku says it is a fallacy of nonsense to say you will reciprocate love since love is selfless. All anyone can really do is to just pass it on.

YOUR MARRIAGE NOT WORKING, BE BOLD ENOUGH TO WALK AWAY..

"Be bold enough to end any relationship or marriage that is not working before it turns into a disaster" - Kolade Arowolo, accused wife killer. Icheoku says, regrettably, the accused did not or rather failed to heed his own advise and now stands accused in the murder of his wife Titilayo Arowolo. Call it a Monday night quarterbacking and if only hind-sight comes to the rescue; but that is a time-tested and time-honored solution that always worked - just be courageous to end it. Admitted it sometimes initially hurts but pains do go away and does not last forever.

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY AMERICA!

It is independence day America; so as you enjoy all the merriment of the anniversary, remember that the gains made over the years could always be improved upon. Happy independence annivesrary!

MARIA CANNOT FORGIVE AND FORGET ARNOLD, FILES FOR DIVORCE.

From the Terminator that is. A man who terminated his own marriage by knocking up their house maid and fathering a child out of wedlock by her. This was simply too unbearable for the Kennedy niece; a matter made more painful because Arnold had the sexual dalliance with the house maid on Maria's matrimonial bed? Icheoku asks, but what happened to the Christian virtue of forgiveness, believing Maria Shriver-Kennedy Schwarzenegger is a Christian or is it the usual case of anyone remaining an angel provided no one ruffles their feathers? Anyway what is done is done; and walking out of a marriage cannot put the genie back into the bottle nor will it stop the Terminator from scoring chics; but Maria knows best. But does any marriage really work other than the facade most people put up just to get by in the society that is too judgmental.

APENA, JEGEDE'S WIFE IS DEAD!

Christy 'Apena' Essien-Igbokwe , the wife of Jegede Shokoya of the New Masquerade and Nigeria's lady of songs is dead; she was 51years old. Although her family claimed that "brief Illness" killed her like so many Nigerians; Icheoku retorts that it was most likely AKwa Ibom voodoo and remote control that was used to arrest her. It is on record that she had fallen out with the governor of her native Akwa Ibiom State and have been having a relentless war for political turf with the governor? So who knows whether she was sacrificed to Ekpe cult or even Alusi-Okija as an offal; afterall African science is still very much alive and portent. May her soul rest in peace.

CHIEF IMAM OF CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA, SANUSI LAMIDO SANUSI

Now Nigerians know why a man whose educational training and specialization is Sharia was imposed on the Central Bank of Nigeria. Mallam or rather Imam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi studied Islamic Sharia implementation in Nigeria at a Sudanese Islamic University and less than a decade in the banking industry, he was severally elevated until his latest schtick at the CBN. His first order of business, to rewound all the progresses of the last ten years preparatory to implementing his Sharia Islamic Banking in a supposedly secular Nigeria. Icheoku is at a loss on the silence of President Jonathan as this Imam at the CBN forcibly imposes his warped ideological Islamic banking on Nigeria. The president should be man enough to fire this bank chief or better still take a strong position on this Islamic banking - if they do not like it, too bad.

41ST PRIDE SF 2011 DID NOT DISAPPOINT.

They came in their numbers, as colorful as it gets and happily displaying their stuff; except that unlike in New York, it is still not legal for same sex couples to marry in California. These folks have hope and New York has set the way for what is possible in California. Patricia Glass pictured is one happy participant; admitted she is not naked as her nipples are covered as required by law, hmmm? Icheoku says, happy pride week LGBT.

IS THIS BLASPHEMY OR WHAT?

Icheoku wonders whether this pro-gay activist has gone off the reservation and strayed a little too far in his interpretation of the biblical teaching about Jesus Christ? Admitted that Jesus Christ figuratively had two fathers - God the father and Joseph the husband of Mary but to juxtapose same with the current effort for gays to marry is simply going too far. Icheoku supports anyone's right to marry anything including his dog, cat or even ferret and does not know society's interest in preventing anyone from experiencing torture masquerading as marriage. Let them lose their freedom just like other members of the society.

MITT ROMNEY GOES ROGUE ON REPUBLICANISM, WEAK ON SECURITY?

The RomneyCare former governor of Massachusetts and Republican Party's presidential nominee wanna-be lacks strong defense foreign policy credentials. He said Americas troops should not be used to help liberate peoples of the world and he forgot their primary objective. Icheoku says if this is all the Republican Party could offer; then get Icheoku our President Obama second inauguration T-shirt right now as we are ready to adorn it right away! What a huge joke or should we borrow Karl Rove's Donald Trump acronym "Joke Candidate!" who does not understand the fundamental tents of the Republican Party - strong defense!

AHMAN AL ZAWAHIRI, AL-QUEIDA'S NEW CEO?

Good enough the board of directors of the terrorist organisation, Al-Queida Inc., has appointed or promoted a well known face, the former number two to Osama Bin Laden, Alman Al Zawahiri as its new Chief Executive Officer and thereby stamping the bullseye on his back. The hunters of terrorists will not be encumbered trying to figure out who they are looking for; so America Navy Seal Team Six should be ready to mount another daring operation to take out this terror-chief any time from now. Icheoku believes that his hunt will not be as prolonged as the dead Bin Laden's and it is only a matter of time before a US made gun will be trailed on his chest or forehead which ever enters the cross-hairs first. What a sorry SOB this Egyptian doctor now terrorist chief is and Icheoku prays he joins Bin Laden, sleeping with the fishes, very soon and incapable of meeting with his 70 virgins!

DISMEMBERED WIFE AND MOTHER, CHARLENE GAITHER.

Domestic violence takes a new life everyday and mindless savagery as this often becomes the after-burners of years of pain and anguish. Icheoku says it does not have to come to this as there is something called walking-away. Just get a divorce and thus get rid of the irritant rather than getting yourself into more heart-aches and eventual crime!

BULGING CONGRESSMAN WEINER TEARS UP, IT SHOULD HAVE COME EARLIER!

Before hitting the send key! Icheoku says give it up to randy politicians and their ever-ready tears of a clown which freely flows each time they are caught pants down in the act. From the "I did not sleep with that woman, Monica Lewinsky" to Client 9 to Ensign etc, the play-act is always the same, first deny it and then blame the devil for making him do it with a fake tear. Anyway, Icheoku is not sitting on judgment over an overaged Fraternity guy displaying his endowment, but he should have been man enough to own up initially and not this belated with tears of supposed remorse!

THE STUFF LEGEND IS MADE OF, THE RIESTER TWINS DIE ON THE SAME DAY!

They were born just seconds apart in Buffalo, New York, United States of America on March 27, 1919 and they died just hours apart on Wednesday, June 1, 2011 at St Petersburg, Florida, United States of America. Twin brothers Adrian and Julian Riester were both professed Franciscan Friars for 65 years and stayed together throughout their 92 years on this earth. Icheoku wishes them both a glorious transition to On High!

ANYIM PIUS ANYIM, THE NEW SGF

Icheoku says provided he will concentrate his effort at Abuja in helping President Jonathan to succeed and not use his newly found power to lord it over the people to Ebonyi State. This is usually the bane of Igbo politicians who cannot get along with one another and try to run each other out of town as they become absolutely intoxicated by power. Icheoku hopes the Nwodo-Chime turf war in Enugu will not replicate itself in Abakiliki between the new SGF and Governor Martin Elechi. Icheoku says, just remain 'part of the team of champions that are being putting in place to drive the transformation agenda' and it shall be well with you. On this understanding, our congratulations to the new Secretary of the Government of the Federation, Pius Anyim!

GEORGE TRON'S RAPE, WHAT'S WRONG WITH THESE FRENCH MEN?

When the world is yet to grapple the sexual assault of Dominique Strauss-Kahn on a hotel janitor, here comes another French man and until recently, a minister in the French government of Monsieur Sarkozy, George Tron, being accused of rape by two French women? Icheoku says it must be in the French cheese and wine that such testateron that makes these French men too horny to beg that they just forcibly take it. Anyway give t up to the French in matters of the heart; but this violence on women is another terrifying dimension!

OIL MINISTER DIEZANI ALLISON MADUEKE, ISN'T SHE PRETTY!

Her eyes will melt away any sadness and calm any raging inferno. Icheoku says this lady is darn pretty! Have yourself a wonderful weekend.

OPRAH WALKS AWAY!

After 25 long years holding the center stage of day time talk-show, Lady 'O' said enough and walked off the stage for the final time; thus marking the end of her day time Oprah Winfrey Show. Icheoku wishes Lady 'O' all the best as she pursues her new venture - Oprah Winfrey Network.

PRESIDENT OBAMA'S RITES OF PASSAGE, NOW HE IS PRESIDENT O'BAMA!

Icheoku says the Irish have 'stolen' President Barack Obama from the Kenyans as the president went home to Moneygall Ireland to take his rites of passage into becoming a full Irish man? At a town's pub, the president was offered the dark bitter brew which formally made him an Irish man. Icheoku asks, what are the Kenyans waiting for or don't they have some potion of their own to offer the president in their battle with the Irish as to who truly claims ownership of the president. Ladies and gentlemen, success has a lot of company indeed as one person is now being fought over by three continents!

OBAMA THREW ISRAEL UNDER THE BUS - MITT ROMNEY.

Icheoku asks is this always-ran GOP presidential nominee ever decisive or just floats like a plastic bag on matters of policy by pitching against whatever the other side is saying? The same man who signed into law, a health care for all in Massachusetts while a governor not too long ago, is now denying that there exist any benefit and advantage with healthcare for all; just because President Obama ko-towed his example? Still wondering why America does not trust Mitt Romney as he is too full of it; now he is acting more catholic than the pope with the Middle East crisis attacking a well considered reasonable and only meaningful state policy just announced by the president? Meanwhile he has not proffered any alternative solution to the festering Israeli-Palestine question on how best to resolve it except to maintain the stalemet and kicking the can down the road. Icheoku asks but for how long shall Israel be lied to or made to believe that any other solution exist? Oh Romney!

IMF CHIEF DOMINIQUE STRAUSS-KAHN, A PERVERT!

Icheoku says this Frenchman forgot that he was in America and also failed to take lessons from Bill Clinton's experience when he solicited a "Monica Lewinsky" from a maid in Manhattan! Dominique Strauss-Kahn was too cheap to call Elliot Spitzer for a lead to client number 9 service provider as he would rather spend his money on hotel suites than give it to a whore. Now he is keeping company with the law since America is not France or some other third world or Africa country where his influence would have been enough to give him a pass. Hopefully he will in addition to being convicted and sent away, be sued for civil damages which will be enough to free the maid from such future aggressive misbehavior of other high and powerful hotel guests; provided of course she is not intimidated into silence by the hotel or some private detectives hired by the defense lawyers to dig into her past including whether she is living in the country illegally. Anyway what a peek into the arrogant life of the rich and powerful who think the world and its underlings are theirs to dominate. What a poor horny-dog French man, this Dominique is!

PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN, CAN IGBOS CONTINUE TO TRUST THIS MAN?

Or is it about time they took their red cap and go their own way? DSP Alamesigha trusted him and he lost the governorship of Bayelsa? Umaru Yar'Adua trusted him and he lost the presidency; now the Igbos trusted him and they have lost the Speakership of the House of Representatives and by extension, a seat at the table of power. Icheoku says it is in their DNA as there appears to be still no love lost between the Niger Delta minorities and their supposed big brother in the Southeast. Anyway what can Icheoku tell you except that the Southeast Igbos appears to have been 419ed by this man!

REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL RACE 2012, HUCKABEE CHICKENS OUT!

Icheoku says Mike Huckabee correctly read the handwriting on the wall that there is no way in hell Republicans can beat President Barack Obama in 2012 and that he personally does not stand any chance of being nominated as the Republican flag bearer, hence his decision to take the easy way out. Icheoku says this former Arkansas governor is a smart alec and knows when not to fight an already assured lost battle. So with Mikey now out of the way, that is one person less the several presidential wanna-bes including Donald Trump, who want to change their address to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Way to go Mikey and it does not matter if your heart or head or pocket said the NO.

HORRIFIC AND INCREDIBLE, AS MOM FRIES BABY IN A MICROWAVE OVEN!

Once again those who said that looks could be deceptive have been proved right as this rather attractive woman turned out to be a devil incarnate herself. Her name is China Arnold and she was recently convicted of aggravated murder in the death of her daughter, 28-day-old Paris Talley in August 2005; whom she fried alive in a microwave oven reaching 108 degrees. Icheoku says before you make that leap of fate on a supposedly found love interest, pause and ponder; as anyone would have so easily taken this monster home thinking he has found a future life partner. Now you know why her boyfriend made a dash for his dear life as any woman who is capable of roasting her own child, whom she carried in her womb for nine long months, in a microwave oven is capable of causing other grievous bodily harm to any other including the slicing off of the genitilias. Oh daughters of Eve, why do you stomach such anger under your belly?

ILLUSIONS AND MIRAGES, NOT A RESULT OF IMPAIRED VISION.

All that glitters are not gold, so you may not be really seeing what you are looking at. The eyes are deceitful and sometimes what you think you see is different from the reality of what is. So the next time you are in doubt, simply walk away; but do not always trust what your eyes tells you that it sees!

BUHARI'S MY WAY OR THE HIGHWAY CAUSED THE VIOLENCE - JEGA!

The "crisis of expectation" from Muhammed Buhari and his followers, "who expected a particular outcome from the elections" caused the violence which ensued after they lost the presidential election. The result was different from what they had expected, hence their fickle decision to try and divide the child into two. But King Solomon was wise as Nigerians rejected Buhari alongside his wicked plot. - INEC Chairman Professor Attahiru Jega spoke in John Hokins University in Washington DC.

AYMAN AL-ZAWAHIRI NEXT IN THE LINE OF FIRE, A DEAD MAN WALKING!

Icheoku says it is only a matter of time before Al-Querida number two terrorist-in-chief, Ayman Muhammad Rabaie al-Zawahiri is delivered justice. The fugitive can hide as the coward he is but the long reach of the United States intelligence assets will find him and the special forces will nail him. Good enough number one is now gone so that makes it easy to concentrate assets on locating and dispatching number two. What a fumbling maggot this animal is that touched the tail of the tiger and having murdered sleep, can sleep no more until he assumes room temperature preparatory to his sleeping with the fishes! The good thing is that he will be easily recognizable and will require no DNA or facial recognition or any kind; just look at that forehead mark!

THERE ARE A LOT OF TERRORISTS IN PAKISTAN - RICHARD LUGAR.

"Pakistan is a critical factor in the war against terror, our war, the world's war against it, simply because there are a lot of terrorists in Pakistan." - Senator Richard Lugar, Republican, Indiana. Icheoku says, so let us invade them, using the war against terrorism doctrine of President Bush that those who harbor terrorists are as guilty as those terrorists themselves!

MARK TONER, STATE DEPARTMENT DESERVES BETTER?

Icheoku is just wondering whether Mark Toner is the best the States Department could find as their spokesman? His elucidation and clarity of statements is not the best there is or ever was; and he is somewhat shy or lacks confidence that eye contact usually is an issue. To some extent Mark Toner shares some uncanny 'mouth/facial' resemblance to United States Ambassador to the United Nations, Dr Susan Rice that were they of the same race, Icheoku would have concluded they were related. Anyway, Icheoku says the State Department could use a better spokesperson to more succinctly get the message out and across; as the current one, Mark Toner falls awfully too short.

JUST SHUT THE HECK UP - SENATOR JOHN KERRY

"I think those SEALS did exactly what they should have done and we need to shut up and move on about the realities of what happened in that building in Abottabad Pakistan." - Senator John Kerry, Democrat Massachusetts.

SECRETS TO CREATING JOBS IN NIGERIA.

Icheoku says to President Goodluck Jonathan and the governors looking to create jobs in Nigeria to just look at what works overseas and try replicating same in Nigeria. That way the millions of unemployed and under-employed, ready to work manpower, will be find something to do and with it comes added revenue for the government via taxation. Any consultant worth his'her paycheck, hired by the government to push job creation agenda forward, will find so many untapped and under-resourced jobs waiting to be easily added to the Nigerian economy. These jobs do not necessarily have to be Iphone and Ipad inventing type of jobs; but a job that pays its workers some decent wages and benefits.

BOKO HARAM AND ALAMAJIRI ARE TRAITORS!

'These almajiri hooligans causing havoc in Northern Nigeria are not friends of people; they are not friends of humanity. They are traitors to the cause of humanity.' - Professor Wole Soyinka.

ACF CONGRATULATES JONATHAN, NOW BUHARI IS RUNNING ON EMPTY?

First it was Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida, followed by Atiku Abubakar and now Arewa Consultative Forum thumping Muhammadu Buhari's delusional assertion of election victory? The three entities, powerhouse and champions of the Northern agenda-driven zoning, having now congratulated President Jonathan on his victory, have by necessary implication, deflated Buhari's "victory" balloon. Icheoku asks, who is then left to serve as witnesses to Buhari's fantasy claim to the last presidential election victory?

NO SHRINE FOR OSAMA BIN LADEN, DEMOLISH HIS DEATH HOME NOW!

Icheoku calls on the Pakistani authorities to bulldoze the home where Osama Bin Laden lived and met his final waterloo in Abottabad. That way his heinous legend will be wiped away without anything physical to continuously remind the world of him. If the structure is not demolished, his fanatical followers might find it a Mecca of some sort, where they will go to pay homage to their hero, the villain of the world. Remember his blood was spilled there, so he is still there in some form; so leaving the building standing could defeat the essence of his watery interment as it could still be converted into a shrine in his honor. If the Pakistanis will not do it themselves, may be America should or make them do it at the pain of paying dearly for harboring the world's most notorious fugitive. Icheoku says, demolish that building now and completely erase his memory - a building where Bin Laden hid in plain sight and with the 'support' of the Pakistani authorities for more than five long years while America was led on a wild goose chase of him through the rugged terrains of Afghanistan and where he shed his blood should not be left standing!

KILLING OF BIN LADEN, A SWEET REVENGE!

The Godfather the movie said that 'revenge is sweet when served cold' and so is the killing of Osama Bin Laden after ten long years of being on the run and now feeling relatively safe in a house amidst the humanity that call Abottabad-Pakistan home. Icheoku says if there is ever a time when revenge is sweet, the killing of Osama is such a time and for this, we rejoice with the men of the US Navy Seal who had this mission accomplished. Way to go, America!

SULTAN JOINS ISSUES WITH ORITSEJAFOR, FAILS TO CONDEMN BUHARI?

The Sultan of Sokoto Caliphate and head of Muslims in Nigeria, Mohamed Sa'ad Abubakar has taken side in the post election mayhem which engulfed Northern Nigeria. It is apparent that the mullah saw nothing wrong in what Buhari said that ultimately triggered the riots and denied it was religious? Icheoku says this Sultan is being economical with the truth in insisting that the riot was not Islamic religion tinged; otherwise why was it not nationally spread but localized in Sharia Islamic Northern Nigeria? Also if this Sultan is dispassionate and have no dog in the fight, why was he not courageous enough to call out Buhari on his statement, encouraging and instigating his followers to lynch people who disagrees with his Islamic agenda in Nigeria? Anyway, the wax which the British colonial masters used to band-aid the humpty-dumpty called Nigeria is gradually melting away by the actions of these Muhmammadu Buhari led street urchins and pretty soon, the rest of Nigerians will make their minds up on the way forward; but these incessant slaughter of defenseless Nigerians in their country cannot go on unabated whether or not the Sultan and his acolytes likes it.

HAPPINESS IS A CHOICE.

JUST WONDERING, IF IBORI WHY NOT ATIKU?

Icheoku says if the former governor of Delta State James Onanefe Ibori could be extradited to London for money laundering related charges, why not extend the same treatment to Atiku Abubakar, who is allegedly wanted in the United States for similar offenses? Just thinking out aloud or have the US Department of Justice not requested for Atiku to be handed over to face his alleged criminal charges yet; afterall his point-man Representative William Jefferson of Louisiana is since cooling off in prison for his role in the Atiku reef. So Icheoku asks, when will Abubakar Atiku go to the United States or be shipped off there?

OHAKIM THROWS IGBO AGENDA UNDER THE BUS, SAYS BUHARI CAN BE PRESIDENT IN 2015?

Icheoku calls out Governor Ikedi Ohakim of Imo State for siding with the enemy - the governor said Buhari can be president of Nigeria in 2015. The governor has by this put on ice the chances of the Igbo nation realizing their 2015 agenda of producing a president of Nigeria of Igbo extraction. Icheoku condemns this statement by Governor Ikedi Ohakim, except it was a miscommunication or the purport was lost in translation. Icheoku affirms that the Igbo agenda 2015 is still on course and full stream, irrespective of the the fact of President Jonathan's electoral victory 2011 and whether or not Ikedi Ohakim likes it.

What a foot in the mouth!

BIRTHER IS A BRIDGE TOO FAR - ARIZONA GOVERNOR BREWER.

"I never imagined being presented with a bill that could require candidates for president of the greatest and most powerful nation on earth to submit their early baptism or circumcision certificates; this is a bridge too far." - Governor Jan Brewer of Arizona while vetoing the state legislature's so called birther's bill. Icheoku says finally some common sense have come to Arizona State's government house as Governor Brewer has now fully matured, politically. What a rational come around.

BUHARI IS NOT AN HONORABLE MAN, RENEGES ON HIS WORDS?

"My shedding tears had nothing to do with political strategy. For what and for which aim? The choice is with the people, if they decide let them vote for or reject me" - Muhammadu Buhari speaking to BBC Hausa service monitored in Kaduna. Icheoku asks, what changed now that the people have rejected Buhari and he is not conceding the election so that the country can move on and move forward with solving its many challenges?

BUHARI IS A NOOSE ON NIGERIA, SO DO NOT HELP PLACE IT.

"The grounds on which Buhari is being promoted as the alternative choice are not only shaky, but pitifully naive. History matters, records are not kept simply to assist the weakness of memory, but to operate as guides to the future.Canvassing for Buhari's presidency based on his supposed records is one of the most depressing argument that I ever encountered from people trying to place a political noose around the country’s neck with a Buhari's presidency." - Professor Wole Soyinka. Icheoku says the Nobel Laurette was right then and is again right now; just don't do it. SAY NO TO BUHARI.

ACN/CPC ALLAINCE COLLAPSE, AN ACT OF GOD.

Icheoku says don't blame the refusal of Pastor Tunde Bakare to sign away the vice presidency to Bola Tinubu as the reason for the collapse of the purported alliance. No, it was simply an act of God intervening for President Goodluck Jonathan which hardened the heart of Tunde Bakare like Pharaoh Herod. May be Godwin Daboh was afterall right that any weapon fashioned against President Jonathan shall fail; and so it is that the mother of all alliances between ACN and CPC against Jonathan has now also failed. IBB was first to go, followed by Atiku and now Buhari is on a cliff-hanger!

BUHARI IS NOT GOOD FOR YOU, NIGERIANS!

Please, please, please Nigerians remember it was like yesterday that the same man was lording it over Nigerians and recently praised late Sani Abacha as being the most honest president ever seen in Nigeria. This Buhari is mean, lean and vengeful. He is not good for Nigeria's corporate existence, so DO NOT VOTE FOR HIM.

NATO DOES NOT OWE LIBYAN REBELS A THING, HAS ALREADY DONE ENOUGH!

Icheoku says Benghazi General Abdul Fattah Younis and his rag-tag so called rebels should stop behaving as if anybody sent them to take up arms against their country's government. These rebels have been complaining that NATO is not doing enough and they failed to say when it was that they employed NATO to do their dirty job for them? NATO promised to stop a possible Benghazi massacre and that they did, but for this rebellious soldier and his group to now become cry-babies each time Gaddafi's forces responds to their provocation, accusing NATO of not doing enough makes Icheoku sick. They want power, they should go and get it and not wait in the lurch for NATO to do all the heavy lifting for them to now come and enjoy; after which they will start burning flags and effigies of Western countries and their leaders. Icheoku says NATO has done enough and should withdraw except Younis and his Libyan rebels undersigns to pay for the effort, period.

CAPTURED LAURENT GBAGBO'S NECK, GOOD FOR THE NOOSE!

There should be no time wasted with this man - just a summarily trial and execution as any attempt to keep him alive in any manner will continue to elicit commentary from his beneficiaries and thereby causing restiveness in Ivory Coast. Icheoku says take Gbagbo to the lamp-post or make him walk the plank for the sake of Ivory Coast.

BLACK COLLEGES FOR BLACK AMERICANS, ANY RATIONAL?

Icheoku asks is there a thing like black workforce or workplace, otherwise what is the use of so pigeonholing black peoples education only for such graduates to later seek employment opportunities in the general workplace? Without prior academic and social interactions and mixing amongst these folks in schools, how are they expected to get along working together later in life. Just asking, but Icheoku could sure use some answers!

MUHAMMADU BUHARI, A MURDERER?

Icheoku says we are all Bartholomew Owoh, Lawal Ojuolape and Bernard Ogedengbe at this moment their killer wants to be elected president of Nigeria. Innocent Nigerians murdered in cold blood by then coup plotting head of state and now CPC Presidential candidate Muhammadu Buhari and we demand justice. We are not mad that drug-dealing was made a death penalty offense by Muhammadu Buhari but that we peddled drugs when it was not so punishable, yet this tyrant promulgated Decree 20 of 1984 and retroactively subsumed our offense under the decree and killed us. Nigerians you are now our only voice left in the land of the living, so please help us register our displeasure at this unconscionable murders by not voting for BUHARI.

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA SAYS HE IS RUNNING?

Icheoku says we don't know if we are running with him this time just yet. Africa has been left behind and folks are being slaughtered in Ivory Coast and no aircraft carrier is in sight plus a host of other issues militating against brothers and sisters. May be we gonna sit this one out; but GREAT may be ......?

MUHAMMADU BUHARI, THE TROUBLE WITH NIGERIA!

Icheoku says Nigeria's parlous state today could be traced to Muhammadu Buhari, who in 1983, violently aborted Nigeria's second republic democracy. Icheoku said violently because one of the coup plotters Major General Bako, who was sent to Aso Rock to arrest President Shehu Shagari was shot to death by Brigade of Guards in Aso Rock. Since December 31st 1983 when Muhammadu Buhari's junta struck, Nigeria has never known peace or progress as it was repeatedly bastardized by a retinue of army men led by Ibrahim Babangida, Sani Abacha and Abdulsalam Abubakar. Their tenure brought the nightmare Nigeria is yet to fully awake from in order to chart a new direction. Icheoku therefore affirms that Buhari is the change that Nigerians need and desire to make; so his slogan is right that says Buhari4Change. Nigerians should therefore change Buhari by rejecting Buhari and his curse of military intervention that put Nigeria several decades behind. BUHARI4CHANGE, CHANGE BUHARI; DO NOT VOTE FOR AN ANTI-DEMOCRACY DESPOT, BUHARI.

BUHARI FOR CHANGE, YOU'RE RIGHT.

Icheoku pleads with Nigerians not to buy into the hogwash that Buhari is for change as Buhari is the reason why Nigerians what to change. Nigerians want to change from military dictatorship or any semblance of it. Buhari overthrew Alhaji Shehu Shagari democratically elected government in December 31, 1983 and heralded the successive Babangida, Abacha and Abdulsalam military regimes. Buhari is therefore a military man and will run an exclusive government instead of the all inclusive government democracy entails. Buhari has blood of innocent Nigerians in his hand. Buhari is corrupt otherwise where did he get the money for a presidential campaign run? Buhari is anti freedom of the press and the people, remember Decree 4 that sent Nduka Irabor and Thompson Maduka to prison. Nigerians do not suffer amnesia as you go to the polls to elect the next president. Just remember the hands dealt you by Obasanjo and reject another military dictator from ever coming back to power. REJECT BUHARI, DO NOT VOTE FOR BUHARI

ISLAMIC HATRED OF THE USA, RUNS DEEP.

The sign of things facing USA in the Arab world as a protester in Jakarta Indonesia denounce the American led coalition of the willing Libyan intervention. Icheoku doubts if ever the hearts and minds of these mullahs and madrassa scholars will ever be won under these circumstances.

IN TIMES OF DESOLATION, THINK THE FOLLOWING:-

"Remember if the world hates you, they hated me first" - Jesus Christ, our Lord and Master. Icheoku says, so why do you care if nobody likes you or speaks good of you, as long as you are satisfied that you are on the conscionable side of the divide.

GREAT AFRICAN FOOD IN JAMAICA NEW YORK!

Africana Restaurant provides a mama's kitchen away from home. Located at 146-12 Liberty Avenue, Jamaica NY 11435, it is a great place to indulge your palate with original delicacies as if you are in Naija! We visited and we highly recommend it to Diaspora Nigerians or anyone visiting NY area and feels like treating oneself to great Naija food! Their phone number:- 718.658.8501

GERALDINE FERRARO IS DEAD.

She was Walter Mondale's vice presidential candidate in 1984 and reemerged later in 2008 when she criticized and campaigned against then presidential candidate and now President Barack Obama. Geraldine Ferraro died of blood cancer, she was 75years old. Icheoku says so long Dino, adieu!

DAVID SCHUBERT, A HOLIER THAN THOU DISTRICT ATTORNEY?

While he prosecuted Paris Hilton, he used! While he prosecuted Bruno Mars, he used; and so were so many other victims! And so the story goes that the hard-charging and ass-bursting deputy District Attorney David Schubert is also a junkie; may be a case of do what I say but not what I do? The DA was busted after buying a rock cocaine for a fix. What a hypocritical world we live; but does anyone know if this "Pharisee" is also a Republican? What a pitiful mugshot.

WARREN CHRISTOPHER, FORMER SECRETARY OF STATE IS DEAD!

His last famous appearance was during the Gore v. Bush 2000 presidential tug of war when he was the arrow-man for Gore and the Democratic party. Warren Christopher was 85 years and died of old age related disease.

MUAMMAR GADHAFI, AWAITING THE NO FLY ZONE?

Icheoku asks does Muammar Gadhafi really understand what is coming his way or still oblivious of the enormity of a no fly zone. If he understands it there is no emotion to betray that; but Icheoku hopes that the whole episode shall soon be a thing of the past.

JAPAN, NO WHALING NO TSUNAMI!

The gods are angry at the Japanese by visiting them with two calamitous events - a 8.9 earthquake and a devastating tsunami. Icheoku asks, could their disregard for the giants of the seas be the reason for the washing away of parts of their country, killing thousands in the process? Icheoku asks the Japanese to put a halt to killing thees Kings and Queens of the sea kingdom and see the sea leave them alone. Please leave the whales alone; stop whaling!

JAPAN IMPENDING NUCLEAR MELTDOWN, A CASE OF FRANKENSTEIN MONSTER?

Icheoku queries whether the world has created a Frankenstein Monster with nuclear energy without devising a safe-mode of handling it? The impending nuclear apocalypse in Fukushima Dai-ichi is proving one such monster that even the scientists who brought it about do not seem to know how to contain the increasing temperature therein, leading to a possible meltdown. Does Chernobyl and Mile three Island ring any bell? It is a pity the triple tragedy Japan has been hit with at the same time - an 8.9 magnitude earthquake, a treacherous tsunami and now a nuclear meltdown in the offing. Icheoku prays God Almighty to please forgive the Japanese whatever sin they may have committed to warrant these rage. One natural disaster is more than enough but two plus a scientific one is just too many. Please help Japan at this hour of great need, donate today through the Red Cross. Their need is dire and every dime counts. Icheoku has donated and encourage you to donate today!

OBASANJO TAKES A JAB AT BUHARI?

"Anyone who wants to rule Nigeria must be a detribalized Nigerian and one who has no religious or sectional bias" - Olusegun Obasanjo speaking at President Goodluck Jonathan campaign's Ogun State launch. Icheoku says this one from Baba-Iyabo to Imam Muhammadu Buhari has our support and we reiterate that Buhari is too extreme for Nigerian secular society!

JAPANESE EARTHQUAKE GOOD FOR GADDAFI, GIVES HIM A BREAK!

A popular aphorism goes that one man's meat is another man's poison and so, the tragedy which befell Japan may ironically turn into a cause-celebre for Moummar Gaddafi's government. At least it has for the moment taken the searchlight off the Libyan strongman and he could use this opportunity of great distraction to take his country back from those "medicated al-Querida sponsored invaders" who are fermenting trouble in his land. Anyway with so much on the plate of the world especially America coupled to the reluctance of Russia, China and Italy to follow through with punishing or removing Gaddafi, Icheoku says that Director of National Intelligence may be right that Moummar Gaddafi may afterall survival the putsch to take him out. France recognition of the rebels notwithstanding, since France is not a major world player, Gaddafi seems more confident than ever of a successful reclaim of his Libya from those "few dissenters and trouble-makers?" Icheoku like the rest of the world is waiting and watching to see how the Libyan revolution turned civil war is finally concluded..

FRENCH PRESIDENT GOES ON TRIAL!

Former French President Jacques Chirac has been charged with embezzlement, breach of trust and conflict of interest, based on allegations linked to his tenure as Paris Mayor long before he began his presidency. The former president was alleged to have corruptly paid his cronies for jobs which did not exist and for which they claimed to have worked - akin to Nigeria's ghost workers; except that in this case the ghost workers were visible and the jobs were the real ghosts - call it ghost jobs!

BUHARI WILL FAIL BECAUSE OF BAKARE - IBB

“Pastor Tunde Bakare is a bad political product, a pretentious politician desperate for political power; admitted he is masquerading as a pastor human rights activist. He still remains a political parasite, his political relevance is as insignificant as his humanity.” - Prince Kassim Afegbua, IBB's mouthpiece.

BUHARI ADVOCATES MAYHEM, SIMPLY TOO EXTREME FOR NIGERIA.

A man notorious for his disregard of the rule of law, CPC presidential candidate Imam Muhammadu Buhari has asked his supporters to take the law into their hands and lynch anybody who tries to tinker with their votes!" Icheoku says this is the man who wants to rule Nigeria, advocating mayhem and extra-judicial murder in the same way he murdered three innocent Nigerians Bartholomeow Owo, Ojulope and Ogendegbe with a retroactive decree. Simply put, Buhari is just too extreme for Nigeria and should be rejected. Nigerians say no to Buhari!

CHARLIE SHEEN'S CRY FOR HELP, STRONG INTERVENTION NEEDED.

Icheoku says Brittany Spears was once going off the cliff in the same manner as the crazed-out "Two and half men" star but was saved by the intervention of the courts and his father. This is what is required now in order to pull the cliff-hanger, Charlie Sheen, back on his footing. His drug abuse, weirdness and such other outrageous behavior is simply a cry for help as there is something going on with his internals more than the eyes can see that needs urgent help. Icheoku says the remedy is simple, just get Charlie Sheen the desired help he desperately needs. If Brittany Spears could be saved, so could Charlie Sheen.

MICHAEL HUCKABEE'S BIRTHER COMMENT, NOT A MISSPOKE!

Icheoku says what Michael Huckabee said concerning the growing up of President Barack Obama in Kenya was not a misspoke as his minders have tried to claim. What he said is in furtherance of the birthers claim that President Obama is not an American and Huckabee only reiterated that while putting into words what his dark-mind agrees with. According to the once over-weight mediocre Republican Party's presidential candidate, speaking of President Obama, "I would love to know more, but what I know is troubling enough. And one thing that I do know is his having grown up in Kenya, his view of the Brits, for example's very different than the average American." Icheoku fires back that Michael Huckabee is deliberately raising again the rested issue of President Obama's birthplace and even the Indonesia where the president spent some of his childhood, he was not there long enough for his formative years. It is another untruthful Michael Huckabee throwing the proverbial redmeat. The good news however is that he does not stand a chance at winning the Republican Party's nomination in 2012.

MAXIMILLIAN EZIMORA, ANOTHER NIGERIAN MAN IN AMERICA SHOOTS HIS NURSE-WIFE.

It is pitiable that such wife shooting is still going on among Nigerian men living in America. One would expect that by this time these lowlifers would have learnt their lesson that these nurses are better left alone and if America becomes too excruciating there is a place called Nigeria to run back to. But unfortunately Maximillian Ezimora is an incompetent shooter as his five close range shots failed to nail his target - the victim-wife survived. Wife shooter Ezimora, residing in Atlanta Georgia has been arrested and detained at Fulton County Georgia for attempted murder of his wife, Uchenna Ezimora RN, and will be charged to court shortly. Mr Ezimora is a native of Adazi, Anambra State, South Eastern Nigeria and manages the family’s grocery store, Maxing Groceries, 337 Fletcher Street SW Atlanta. Icheoku says another pitiful Nigerian man who could not take care of business and decided to rob his wife of her registered nurse overtime money. Hopefully the wife will survive her injuries.

THE MESSAGE COULD NOT MORE CLEARER, GADDAFI OUT NOW!

Icheoku says the people of Libya have unequivocally spoken in a manner so loud and so audible that even the deaf hear them. They said that 42 years of dictatorship is more than enough for just one people to bear and that they are tired of him. Now they want Gaddafi out so that they can take their Libya back. Icheoku demands that Gaddafi complies forthwith and unconditionally.

"IBB IS LIKE A FATHER TO ME" - PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN

Icheoku says President Jonathan's choice just got weirder; what a sour taste he has left in the mouths of many of his admirers and millions of Nigerians alike by wishing that an evil-genius was his father? Anyway Olusegun Obasanjo must be green with envy at this disclosure by his adopted political son that he is not good enough to be Jonathan's father and that Jonathan prefers IBB, his rival for a father? Icheoku says this President Jonathan must have the diarrhea of the mouth and seem not to weigh his utterances much; otherwise why remind Nigerians at this critical stage of his campaign that IBB is his father? Like father like son, so Jonathan cannot be trusted?

JENNIFER LOPEZ, QUITTING AMERICAN IDOL?

Icheoku asks is the Jenny from the Block calling it quits with her new gig as judge on American Idol? With teary eyes, Jennifer Lopez said "I don't want to do this anymore" following the elimination of one of her favorite contestant. So Icheoku asks Madam Marc Anthony to please clarify her statement!

ICHEOKU CONGRATULATES CHICAGO MAYOR-ELECT RAHM EMANUEL.

The Mr. Fix-It of the Democratic Party, former President Bill Clinton's White House staffer, former Congressman and former President Barack Obama's chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, has won the Chicago mayoral race. Rahm convincingly won the election with almost a land-slide 58% of the votes. Icheoku like every other pundit knew his victory was a fait accompli; hence the fight against the attempt to disqualify his candidacy on grounds of residency. Anyway, congratulations Mayor Rahm Emanuel and may the lights of Chicago continue to shine and never go dim under your leadership.

WISCONSIN PROTEST, ICHEOKU HAS NO SYMPATHY.

Like the popular saying goes, you get what you pay for; and so it is that many of those protesting Union members in Madison never cared or did not work hard enough during the last election to prevent and preempt what is going on now. Their inaction led to the coming to power of a man who is indifferent to their cause; and suddenly they are protesting. Icheoku says, it is too little too late as their protest would have been more effective earlier on, by stopping the election of a Republican governor who does not get the back of the little guys.

GADDAFI IS TERRORIZING LIBYANS.

"Fear has to be defeated, that is what has kept Gaddafi in power the last 42 years" - A Libyan exile living in America.

ANOTHER EARTHQUAKE HITS NEW ZEALAND

It was just few months ago last September that a 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck the same location. Icheoku's heart goes out to the 65 victims that have so far died and their families. What an ephemeral and fleeting intangible life is that it evaporates without notice just like that?

PDP IS THE TERROR - Governor Fashola

"PDP brought bombing in Nigeria. Before they assumed office in 1999, there was no bombing in Nigeria" - Governor Fashola of Lagos State. Icheoku says, 'YOU LIE' governor as Dele Giwa was murdered through a parcel bomb in October 19, 1986. So in essence PDP did not initiate bombing in Nigeria but only learnt from the master bomber, IBB.

A BATTLE OF WILL BETWEEN PROTESTERS AND MUBARAK!

"Put us in jail! Kill us! Do whatever you want to do. We are getting back our country. You guys have been ruining this country for 30 years. Enough! Enough! Enough!" - Wael Said Abbas Ghonim

MOHAMED SANI ABACHA, SON OF A DICTATOR REWARDED WITH A GOVERNORSHIP TICKET?

Icheoku says when Nigerians think they have seen and heard the last of the maverick Imam Muhammadu Buhari, he has again thrown one of his inexplicable balls. He decided to rehabilitate a dictator's family by allowing the son to fly his party's governorship ticket in Kano State. Mohamed Sani Abacha, son of Nigeria's most hated despot, the bespectacled midget dictator from Kano State, Sani Abacha, secured the Congress for Progressive Change ticket. Icheoku says what a bad way to remind Nigerians the pain they went through under Sani Abacha; except that Buhari never saw anything wrong with the viciousness of that late dictator!

POLITICIANS ARE PROSTITUTES?

"Dogs are more loyal than so many politicians" - Olagunsoye Oyinlola, Ggovernor of Nigeria's Osun State. Icheoku adds, that is why in Washington DC there is a popular saying 'if you want a friend, get a dog!' Politicians are who they are - fair weather friends and they make prostitution sound graceful!

PACKERS IS IT, CHAMPIONS SUPER-BOWL XLV

It was quite a good game, well matched with two teams that were well determined as well as enthused. But in a game someone gotta win and Packers won; beating Pittsburg Steelers 31 - 25. What a game! Just before Icheoku forgets, Dallas Cowboys stadium is quite an impressive arena and better still, it is owned by just an individual - Jerry Jones! Congratulations Wisconsin and Pennsylvania there will always be next time. Meanwhile Icheoku likes the P-Diddy Mercedes ad.

GIVE IT UP FOR THE AIR-HEAD OF ALASKA, SARAH PALIN, ON EGYPT?

"Egypt was the White House's "3 a.m. phone call" but it "went right to the answering machine." - Sarah Palin responding to the White House handling of the crisis. Icheoku says love her or hate her, one thing certain is that she delivers one liners very effectively.

WITH ISRAEL, IT IS CATCH-22 FOR ALL ARAB COUNTRIES?

Love them or hate them, you are screwed if you are an Arab country. Saddam Hussein's Iraq hated them so much and for most part, he was hung like a dog in Baghdad. Now Egypt's Hosni Mubarak is being hounded out of power by his own people for his dalliance with the Israelis? Icheoku says it would appear that for any Arab country there is no good alternative as it concerns Israel; but we believe that this problem could be solved with a peace deal with the Arabs beginning with Palestine! So is anyone in Tel Aviv listening?

JULIANI CARDENAS, DROWNED BY HIS FATHER OVER QUARREL WITH MOTHER?

Icheoku says may the soul of the innocent 4 year old angel now rest in peace. Whatever quarrel that may have led to a raging father drowning this lovely bear in a filthy irrigation canal in Paterson California USA is mind-boggling indeed. Parents can you please stop using your children as a weapon in your fight with one another as they did not ask you guys to marry nor to bring them to this world only to end their life in such horrible manner by a dad from hell. May his little soul rest in peace!

MUBARAK IS A GONER!

Egyptians should not worry as their dictator is merely decompressing and will eventually make his final exit and very soon. All he is doing is to gradually climb down from his Olympian heights; first with firing his cabinet, then with a stated time to leave and the final step will soon follow with his exit. Congratulations Egyptians; do not falter, do not despair! Just one more final push.

ICHEOKU SAYS, WE ARE ALL EGYPTIANS AND WE WANT MUBARAK GONE!

In solidarity with the people of Egypt and democracy lovers all over the world, Icheoku is dedicating this period for the struggle against the River Nile dictator, Hosni Mubarak. We shall stay on top of it till the dictator steps down or is pushed away or forced into exile, which ever comes first. 30 years is long enough for one person to remain the president of a country and Egyptians demand that this absurdity of a presidency ended. President Hosni Mubarak, out; you are fired!

TRADING PLACES:- THE SARAKI SIBLINGS EXCHANGE OFFICES?

In Kwara(Saraki) State of Nigeria, a brother and eight year termed out governor of the state and his sister also eight years termed out senator of the state have traded places. The brother will now switch sides and become a senator while the sister will do the same and become a governor each taking over the other's vacating office. Such things are possible in banana republics like Nigeria and in a state which has been hijacked by the Saraki family; and for them it does not matter what millions of other Kwara State indigenes think about it. Icheoku says it would appear that their father and patriarch of the family, Olusola Saraki, has already paid the purchase price for the state and will soon formally change its name from Kwara State to Saraki State! What an absurdity?

GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATE AND SIX OTHERS MURDERED IN NIGERIA!

Icheoku says it is about time President Goodluck Jonathan apologizes to Nigerians and the former IGP Ogbonna Onovo who he fired because of insecurity in the country, for the continuing and exacerbating insecurity in the land. The president fired IGP Onovo and hired his man Hafz Ringim to stem the incessant loss of lives in the hands of hoodlums in Nigeria; but not only did it not abate, it has multiplied ten-folds. Icheoku says the president has failed in the joker of Ringim and should apologize to Onovo for preempting his effort at tackling the insecurity in the country as his replacement is not up to the task and should consider possibly reinstating him to the office. A governorship candidate Fanami Gubio and a brother to a sitting governor with four others wasted in this brazen manner in public view during the day is the height of insecurity in any given society. It is very unfortunate indeed!

MANDELA PLEASE STAY AROUND A LITTLE LONGER!

Icheoku wishes the father of Africa, President Nelson Mandela, a quick recovery from his collapsed lungs which has seen him admitted in hospital this past two days. At 92 Icheoku knows it could be anytime; but please Africans want Mandela to tally around much longer. Get well, President Mandela!

AMERICA DOES IT BIG!

'We are a nation that do big things' - President Barack Obama during his State of the Union address. Icheoku says correct talk and that includes giving the world Coca-Cola, Boeing, Microsoft, Google, Yahoo, Facebook, Electric bulb, Wright brothers, Internet, Microwave ovens, Atom bomb, Fast foods and so many other good and big things that the world would have still been in dark ages without America!

"THIS IS OUR GENERATION'S SPUTNIK MOMENT" - PRESIDENT OBAMA.

"So instead of re-fighting the battles of the last two years, lets fix what needs fixing and move forward!" With this theme-message, President Barack Obama during the 2011 State of the Union address, urged the Tea Party Republicans not to waste time on "repealing" a working Healthcare Reform Law and instead join hands with his administration in fixing many of America's militating problems including job creation. Icheoku says, lets hearken to the president's wise counsel.

MICHELE BACHMANN, FORMS A THIRD PARTY?

For the first time in history, there is a third party in America known as Tea Party and Michele Bachmann is their leader. She gave additional response to the State of the Union address on behalf of her Tea Party. Anyway that is the beauty of our democracy; but Icheoku wonders whether she used a teleprompter?

JACK LALANNE, MISTER FITNESS, DEAD AT 96.

He never wanted to die because dying would hurt his image as in his his words, "I can't afford to die. It would wreck my image." According to his theory of living forever young, "the only way you can hurt the body is not to use it; inactivity is the killer." But hey at 96, the body is barley functional and so the man who brought fitness and keeping fit to America is no more; gone of old age induced and pneumonia aided respiratory malfunction. Icheoku says, adieu Mr. Fitness Jack Lalanne!

DARRELL ISSA, NOT FIT TO PRESIDE OVER HOUSE OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE?

Icheoku says with his antecedents of criminal behavior considered, Republican Darrell Issa of California 49th congressional district may not afterall be the fit and proper person to be chairman of the House of Representatives Oversight Committee. A person with questionable past including arrests for weapons possessions, suspicions of arson and insurance scam, accusations of intimidation with a gun and who was involved with stealing cars and such other crimes is not a good example for the society to have been made a committee chairman; especially that of Oversight. But hey, Republicans have a peculiar way of always rehabilitating their owns.

RUSSIA OUT, CHINA IN AS AMERICA REDEFINES PARTNER NUMERO UNO?

The President of 1.6billion Chinese people, Hu Jintao was feted at the White House by America's President Barack Obama and his government. It was sumptuous as it was stately and Icheoku believes Kremlin will be gleeing in envy of having lost the number 2 position in the world, relegated to now third or possibly fourth or even fifth depending on how one views Britain, France and Germany's relationship with America. Anyway with their economic muscle and the needs of their 1.6 billion people as a bargaining tool, it is easy to see why China is now the it. Welcome to America Hu; as the civil rights of Tibetans, Falun Gong and over 1 billion human-beings of Chinese stork can wait while the way out of the economic malaise is given some stately attention. The way of the world?

PIERCE MORGAN IS NO LARRY KING.

If CNN's intention is to find a replacement for the suspenders-man, then they bombed as this Brit ain't no Larry King as he is too drab to light the sparks. Anyway it is his second day on the job and Icheoku is tuned in and will be watching to see if it was a case of a beginner's initial cold-feet in a new media-land. Icheoku hopes too that he will get serious with real personalities doing serious interviews and not these soft-ball girlie chit-chatting witnessed this past two days. Goodluck Morgan with your new gig, but get serious!

NWODO FORCED TO EAT THE HUMBLED PIE, KICKED OUT OF OFFICE.

From his position of obstinate insistence of all or nothing at all in Enugu State PDP, the greedy chairman of the PDP Okwy Nwodo has been kicked out of office and will possibly face trial for some misdemeanor. The buffoon mistook his newly found power as impetus to dictate to certain people; and in the process forgot that somebody and some people made him the chairman of the PDP. Like the dog whom the gods want to kill that stops smelling feces, Nwodo overreached himself with the attempted usurping of his godfather's powers to ordain party officials in Enugu State. Now he has paid a huge price like all unsuccessful dissidents, and he has now been consigned to the history garbage bin of a once was chairman of party. Icheoku bemoans this case of another banana-peel victim of Igbo people unable to understand the art of the game and play it as it should be played. First was Vincent Ogbulafor and now Okwesilieze Nwodo - two chairmen of PDP just within few years and Nwodo barely survived for six months? Icheoku says Nwodo deserves what he got and should also in addition be made to face trial for his role in the fraudulent embezzlement of over $200million at the National Identity Cards project. What an uncalculating humanoid, this man is!

MARTIN LUTHER KING'S BIRTHDAY ANNIVERSARY, HOW MUCH OF THAT DREAM IS STILL LEFT IN US, AMERICA?

Icheoku says with the activities of the Tea Party loonies and Jared Lee Loughner trying so much to rewind the hands of time, do we need another Martin Luther King or the coming of the first one to realize the erosion being made of that dream. Anyway, 'I too have a dream!' But how is that dream working out for you, America? Happy posthumous birthday, the man who saw tomorrow!

MICHAEL STEELE OUT, REPUBLICANS ROMANCE WITH BLACKS IS OVER?

It is back to the 'good ole white boys only' as the "nigger" chairman who refused to know his place is finally thrown out of office. Micheal Steele who supervised the insurgent Tea Party Republicans take-over of the House did not do enough or right by Republican White establishment, hence they threw him under the bus despite his accomplishment. He was simply not a fit for the all white male dominated Republican Party. In his place they elected one of their own Reince Priebus and rejected even the candidate endorsed by the forced out Steele, Mario Cino. Icheoku says, no matter how anyone tries, if you are not like them and do not look like them, you are never good enough for them; so long Mike.

PDP CHAIRMAN NWODO REINSTATED?

AN UNGRATEFUL NWODO SACKED AS PARTY CHAIRMAN!

Icheoku says Nwodo disappointed so many Enuguans when he went to Abuja riding on the co-tail of Sullivan Chime and got greedy. However he forgot that the governor is still in charge in Enugu and so much water could still pass under the bridge. Now that the JOKER has been thrown, it is game-over for the obtuse power-grabber. If only he knew that his downfall could still be orchestrated through the courts, may be he could have been more circumspect in challenging his 'Chi' to a fight. Icheoku says, let Enugu people see who now laughs last.

BURNT OFFERINGS PULLED, STORY NOT CONFIRMED.

Icheoku wants to thank Fatima Aminu for pointing out the error on our story, 'Burnt Offerings'; and accordingly we have pulled the story now convinced that our source overreached. Icheoku regrets going to the press, based on our usually impeccable source, without further verifying the story. Once again, our thanks to Fatima Aminu for pointing out the fact and for being a fan. There was no deliberate intention on our part to sensationalize the story or otherwise be divisive in our commentary. Together we shall overcome!

IGBO PEOPLE IN JOS NIGERIA, DEFEND YOURSELVES!

Icheoku calls on Igbo people in Jos, Plateau State, Nigeria to treat the insecurity situation which is continuously claiming their lives in the north for what it is - a failed state of lawlessness. It is very obvious that the Nigeria state cannot provide security for her citizens, so such citizens can resort to self-help to help save themselves from an assured extinction. They should defend themselves by and using all means necessary:- just apply the 'Kano 83' solution and see the Jos problem go away forever. Icheoku says, enough of being cry-babies; defend your honor and manhood, rise up and defend yourselves today and quit whining!

SHERIFF CLARENCE DUPNIK, STANDING UP FOR COMMON SENSE.

Icheoku says Rush Limbaugh turned into a hell's fury as he defensively attacked a statement which inferred that the Tucson violence could be traced to vitriolic statements coming out of political leaders, especially the right. If only Rush Limbaugh could make out time to think and understand that the absence of evidence does not necessarily mean that the crime was not committed and just take a deep breath. Icheoku says Pima County Arizona which includes Tucson has a wonderful stand-up sheriff in Sheriff Clarence Dupnik and his well articulated statement that acerbic talk-show statements help bring about such ugly incidents as Tucson's is quite incontrovertible!.

OKEY NDIBE, RELEASED!

Icheoku is happy to learn that President Jonathan's state security services of Nigeria has released blogger Okey Ndibe's passport and by necessarily implication his person too. Once again, another triumph of peoples outcry over the whims of one emerging dictator. It shows that protest works; and like Flea Anikulapo Kuti's "I go shout o", Icheoku shall always shout each time any conscientious commentator is picked up by those Nigerian men of power!

AUSTRALIAN GREAT FLOOD!

Our heart goes out to the people of Australia as they go through their own Katrina. The images are end-time like; but as Christians we believe that the good Lord will not destroy his earth by flood again; hence the flood will surely recede and dry lands will emerge again for rebuilding to commence. Be strong Aussies!

TOM DELAY GOES TO PRISON.

He was called Hammer for a reason; but unfortunately he could not hammer down an acquittal and now a judge in Texas has sent him to prison for three years for money laundering and related offences. Icheoku says, Tom Delay, the convict, is headed to the big house.

'PRESIDENT JONATHAN IS NOT GOOD FOR NIGERIA' - OLU FALAE

'The few months spent in office by Jonathan have not been impressive and encouraging. He cannot save Nigeria from its present state of stupor, he cannot address the multifarious problems facing the country. Jonathan, in any case is too close to Obasanjo for comfort and Obasanjo is bad news for Nigeria.' - Olu Falae. Icheoku says Nigerians are at last wising up and stop Jonathan in 2011, is now a task that must be done; it is a call to duty for every Nigerian.

JARED LEE LOUGHNER, THE INTOLERANT MASS MURDERER OF TUSCON ARIZONA.

You are looking at the beast that wrecked untold havoc in Tuscon Arizona; killing six people including a 9yr old child and a federal judge. His mayhem also wounded 13 others including Congress woman Gabrielle Giffords. Icheoku says, the pig deserves to be roasted alive or have his balls pulled out before cutting the domestic terrorist up. - 1/8/11

WORD ON THE MARBLE, HEAR YE DIASPORA NIGERIANS!

There is no wisdom in feeding a lazy fat cat which would not care to chase away an intruding mouse. - Idowu Ohioze, Edmonton, Canada.

President Traian Basescu, scared of Romanian witches' spell?

Romania, the land that produced Nicolae Ceauşescu, the spirit of the Danube River and dictator extraordinaire, is once again in the news. The country's witches and wizards, and they are legion, are threatening to cast spell on the president and government of Romania for daring to impose taxes on them. To ward off the impending evil spell and curses, the president now adorns purple outfits for protection. Icheoku says, Romania is an European country that is supposedly civilized to have outgrown superstitions; and these broom and stick travelers were unable to cast a spell on French Sarkozy when he recently expelled their countrymen and women from France. Just for the heck of it, does anybody know whether Christie O'Donnel, the failed Tea Party senatorial candidate form Delaware is a Romanian gypsy by ancestry?

CONGRATULATIONS MISTER SPEAKER JOHN BOEHNER!

A super-sized gavel for Mr. Speaker; but the last time Icheoku checked, John Boehner is not from Texas where everything is as big as it gets. To he much is given much is expected; so hopefully Speaker Boehner will wield the giant gavel for giant legislations and not use it for petty partisan bickering and for scoring cheap political points. Once again congratulations to the new speaker from Ohio, John Boehner!

'EXECUTE MICHAEL VICK' SAYS FOXNEWS TUCKER CARLSON?

Tucker Carlson of FoxNews said Philadelphia Eagles quarterback 'Michael Vick should have been executed for torturing dogs? Also that Mr. Vick is comparable to a child molester?' Icheoku says this crazed-out pig must be out of his mind in desiring that killing or torturing of dogs should attract a death penalty; or is it a case of a racist, hating a 'nigger' so much, that he preferred him better dead. Where is the equivalency of the crime and his prescribed punishment here? And before Mr. Vick could become a child molester, Mr. Carlson must have fathered dogs or have children who are dogs or have dogs for children. What a raving lunatic that should be confined in a cold asylum!

ALIREZA PAHLAVI, DEAD BY SUICIDE AT 44.

Iranian Prince Alireza Pahlavi, son of deposed late Shah of Iran has killed himself. Tired of living and depressed from life of no fanfare, committed suicide with a single bullet to his temple. Icheoku wonders if the agents of the Iranian government did not pull the job and disguised it as suicide.

ICHEOKU CONGRATULATES GOVERNOR JERRY BROWN OF CALIFORNIA!

Now a third term governor of the once golden state of California, Governor Jerry Brown has now broken two records - once as the youngest 34th Governor at 36years and now the oldest 39th Governor at 72 years. He has also the record of taking over both times from movie stars - Ronald Reagan in 1975 and now Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2011. Governor Brown is the son of former two-term governor of California Edmund G. Brown and he has paid his political dues too from being a two term former governor, secretary of state, attorney general and mayor of Oakland. He once practiced Buddhism in Japan and also worked with Mother Teresa in India showcasing his meekness and humility. At 72 he sure looks good and his aunt at 98-years even looks better; what a longevity gene that runs in the Brown family. Icheoku says, congratulations to the oldest but youthful governor of California.

OWN, OPRAH WINFREY NETWORK STREAMS 01/01/11.

Icheoku sends our felicitation to Lady O and queen of talk-show on the launch of her television network, OWN. We wish OWN a successful run as it debuts noon EST Saturday January 1, 2011. Congratulations Oprah Winfrey!

APB ON NORTHERN NIGERIA AND IRAQ!

Christians are now endangered species in both localities as they are violently attacked, maimed and killed for just practicing their religious beliefs. Icheoku calls on the world to vociferously demand that governments of both Nigeria and Iraq do something urgently to protect these near extinct groups before extremism in both countries wins their campaign of terror and intolerance; which will reverse the gains of past hundreds of years of tolerated religious practices!

BOBBY FARRELL OF BONEY M, DEAD ON RUSSIAN-TOUR AT 61.

He was born in Caribbean Aruba as Alphonso Farrell but took the stage-name Bobby as the lead act in the 1974 plus Disco-era top earner Boney M. He was the alter-ego and chief act of the quartet, comprised of three ladies and one man, himself; a group founded by the German singer and songwriter Frank Farian, who actually sings those songs while Bobby mimes and acts them on stage. The group recorded series of top hits but Icheoku's favorite is 'Brown girl in the ring'. Though Boney M original group broke up in 1986, but Bobby kept on his music career as Bobby Farrell's Boney M which was touring Russian when he gave up the ghost. The late man among women was more girlie(feminine) than the girls of Boney M, which helped captivate more audience world-wide who were thrilled at his energy performance still looking sissy. Bobby was an act and his global fans will surely miss him, some of who have already purchased tickets for his current world tour but like Michael Jackson's "This is it", will also not be able to see their idol. Icheoku says, Adieu Mister Mesmerizer extraordinaire!

FRIENDSHIP AS EXPLAINED BY ICHEOKU!

Friendship should be mutually beneficial; so any friendship without a give and take, reciprocal utility for each party involved therein is no friendship at all and ought to be reassessed.

MIKHAIL KHODORKOVSKY TO REMAIN A PRISONER FOR FEW MORE YEARS

Icheoku asks still wondering the quest for power by rich people? Was Al-Pacino right in his philosophy in Scareface about the progression of stuff - money, power and stuff? Anyway the former Yukos oil CEO just found out the hard way that nobody crosses daddy-Putin and goes scottfree as the former KGB operative must always find a way to exact his pound of flesh from anyone who dares where even the angels thread. But who runs Russia - Medvedev or Putin?

49ers COACH SINGLETARY FIRED!

San Francisco 49ers head coach Mike Singletary was let go by the franchise for abysmal performance coaching the once winning Super Bowl side. Icheoku says it took too long as we would have fired the mediocre coach a long time ago as he can neither read a game nor make proper calls on which quarterback to play most times. Once again another example that passion alone is never enough!

TEENA MARIE, IVORY QUEEN OF SOUL, DEAD OF POSSIBLE OVERDOSE?

Her body was found in her Los Angeles home. TM was 54years old and in case you do not remember who she was - remember the song, Square Biz?

HUGH HEFNER TAKES YET ANOTHER WIFE, A GRANDDAUGHTER BRIDE?

Playboy extra-ordinaire, Hugh Hefner is tired of remaining a bachelor and has engaged a girl young enough to be his great granddaughter as his future bride. Hefner, 84, is getting married again to Crystal Harris, 24 and you wonder what 60 years age differential got to do with it? This will be the third marriage for Hefner with the first being in 1949 to wife number 1, Mildred with whom he has children ages 58 and 55. He divorced her in 1959 and waited 30 years till 1989 when he took wife number two Kimberley Conrad with whom he has two sons ages 10 and 9 before divorcing her in 2009. Icheoku wishes this guy who understands how to really live life, happy adventure number three and at 84, hey!

SIMONE EHIVET-GBAGBO, BEHIND HUSBAND'S REFUSAL TO QUIT?

Icheoku says behind every despot there is a Lady-Macbeth goading and pushing him on against his will. So please take a good look at the woman who has so far made it impossible for former Ivorien President Laurent Gbagbo to throw in the towels. Former Ivory Coast First Lady, Simone Gbagbo, seen here gesticulating, is the real voice of dissent behind the face of former President Gbagbo's refusal to quit power. Icheoku hopes and prays that Simone Gbagbo will be the first African Lady Nicolae Ceausescu of Romania and volunteer to suffer the fate of her husband in the final event he is tried and convicted for his atrocities against the people of Ivory Coast. Icheoku calls on the former first lady to do right by her husband and allow him to concede defeat now!

GBAGBO, TAKE HIM OUT NOW!

Africa has enough of his type (sit-tight leaders) already and this Gbagbo must not be allowed to augment their numbers. Icheoku is surprised that marines and special unit forces have not already started rappelling down into Abidjan to take out the defiant Gbadabo who is currently thumbing his bloody nose on the whole world. There should be no negotiation with this African wanna-be sit tight leader. Enough of the Mwai Kibakis, Robert Mugabe etc of Africa. France Gerdames should show the way and now is the time as everyday goes by leads to a total breakdown of law and order in Ivory Coast.

"ASK N' TELL", OFFICIALLY THE NEW POLICY!

It is now ok 'to ask and to tell' since not being straight does not presuppose not shooting straight. Another accomplishment of a campaign promise by President Barack Obama; so that gay American servicemen and women can now openly fight and die for their country proudly being who they are! Progress!

ONE HECK OF VERY EXPENSIVE CHRISTMAS TREE IN A MUSLIM NATION!

$11 million Christmas Tree in a Muslim country shows there is steadily more tolerance and understanding going on in this world. The host country, United Arab Emirate in its Emirates Palace hotel, Abu Dhabi. What a grand birthday gift to the man whose birth the world celebrates this season, made special now that an Arab country has joined in the festivity and in an over the top fashion!

LAURENT GBAGBO, TAKE HIM OUT - ODINGA

'Gbagbo must be forced out of office, even if it means using military means to get rid of him. The AU must start taking seriously the situation in Ivory Coast instead of just lamenting; as Democracy must be preserved.” - Raila Odinga, Prime Minister of Kenya. Icheoku agrees that all options must be on the table and that this sit-tight wanna be Ivorien must not be allowed to take down Ivory Coast with him as Taylor did with Liberia. Odinga equally is a man of great experience, himself having been similarly situated by an unwilling President Mwai Kibaki who refused to yield office. Now is the time to cut Gbagbo loose from office using any and every means necessary since there is no other acceptable solution but his exit.

SIKIRU AYINDE BARRISTER, FUJI GABBAGE ORIGINATOR GONE!

He did not attend Law school yet he is a barrister? He never wrote nor defended any thesis yet he answers a doctor? But he is a barrister and doctor of Fuji Gabbage; and is now forever gone to the land beyond. Sikiru Ayinde Barrister died in a London hospital of diabetes related causes and will be fondly missed by his numerous Fuji-music lovers. Sikiru was 61 years old and Icheoku says may his Fuji soul rest in peace, Amen!

DORA AKUNYILI JUMPS SHIP!

The feisty lady of Nigeria, professor of pharmacology, take-no-prisoner NAFDAC chairwoman, information minister who attempted to re-brand a non-existing brand and the woman who single-handedly jump-started the beginning of the end of late President Umaru Yar'Adua's presidential absentism, Dora Akunyili, has resigned her office, her political party membership of the PDP and has gone over to APGA; she will contest for a senate seat under her new party. Icheoku wishes her well and observes that hers appears to be the first time a seating minister voluntarily resigned office in Nigeria. Goodluck Madam re-branding!

LT. COL. TERRENCE LAKIN, AN ANTI-OBAMA SOLDIER; CONVICTED!

They come in different shades and backgrounds, racist white Americans still questioning the validity of President Barack Obama's presidency two years into his administration. One of such hicks, Lt. Col Terrence Lakin, was convicted today for disobeying lawful orders to report to duty for Afghanistan. He said he was questioning the president's commander in chief authority, since according to Mr. Lakin, Barack Obama does not meet the "natural born citizen" threshold to be an American president. Larkin is an Army medical doctor who refused to deploy to Afghanistan earlier this year in protest to "That One's" citizenship status? Lt. Col Lakin faces up to three years following his conviction as well as dismissal from the army; but now he is begging to be retained by the same army whose CNC, President Barack Obama, he disrespectfully dissed? Icheoku says it is arrant craziness for this Greele Colarado native to think that there will still be a place for him in the army of one; and he has not even recanted his claim against the president and commander in chief.

THIS MAN, A TERRORIST? UNBELIEVABLE!

Well, as William Shakespeare once wrote, there is no way of reading the mind's construction by the face; and boy was Shakespeare right. Taimour Abdulwahab Abdaly, an Iraqi-born Swede and the Swedish-bomber does not look any bit a typical terrorist and this is the fork on the road on Western countries hunt for these evil people. He certainly does not fit any known profile of a terrorist and Icheoku is afraid that so many green snakes like him are lurking throughout the greenery of Western countries waiting for the opportunity to deliver their deadly payloads. Only vigilance and prayers will save us with the likes of this Swedish bomber, the diaper bomber, the Times Square bomber and even the shoe bomber - all looking prospective looking becoming our new nemesis? It is unimaginable; but kudos to our various security agencies and mother luck for containing these raving jihadists so far

BABAGIDA IS A RESIDENT-EVIL OF NIGERIA!

WOMEN UNSAFE IN DELHI, AS INDIAN-MEN RAPISTS' GONE WILD MULTIPLIES!

When the world thought they have heard enough of India, now comes the news that Delhi has turned into the rape capital of the world. Raunchy India men have lost their decency and now take it by force; with or without safe condoms or any precaution. Icheoku asks these Hindustani men what has overcame them or is the 1.3 billion people scourge not enough already for the country to deal with?

DEWANI ANNI'S KILLING IN SOUTH AFRICA, AN INDIAN DOWRY-DEATH?

Icheoku is not buying the tale of 'being yanked out of the car and his wife driven off with' as being told by Shrien Dewari over the killing of his wife Anni Dewari in South Africa. Icheoku says, this is another case of the infamous Indian dowry-death which was carried out in South Africa by the conniving maggot of a husband, Shrien. Hopefully his sins shall catch up with him, convicted and sent away for life in a maximum security prison in Robin Island, South Africa where he will spend the rest of his natural life being hounded by the ghost of Anni as he ponders whether it was worth it afterall.

ISRAELI MOUNT CARMEL FOREST FIRE, EXTINGUISHED!

Icheoku is thankful to all those firefighters from the world-over who fought gallantly to quench the fire which ravaged parts of Israel recently. It was akin to the biblical Mount Horeb and the burning bush in which God spoke to Moses. But hey, it is not God's wrath but the reckless and careless act of a fourteen year old Jewish boy who smoked something and didn't dispose the smoldering stub properly. Icheoku says it was an accident and the boy should be set free and not face any indictment, being a minor.

PRESIDENT JONATHAN'S BRIBERY GALORE CONTINUES!

The Save Nigeria Group was the first to alert Nigeria of the bribery tendencies Nigeria's President Jonathan with his $50,000 attempted bribery of the group. Not fazed by the disclosure, President Jonathan has now put his sight on the leadership of the national assembly who he has decided to bribe with their acquisition of official government quarters as their own private homes. Icheoku screams holy macro and queries if the past leadership had acquired these properties, where the present leadership would have resided. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it must be a duck and Nigerians must be wary of this aloof Niger Delta operative.

DEFEATED IVORY COAST 'PRESIDENT' GBADABO, REFUSES TO YIELD POWER!

Icheoku says all manners of cohesive force should be applied to make this sit-tight wanna be president of Ivory Coast to realize the foolery and futility of his effort. If he remains obstinate, arrest him and charge him with political endangerment of Ivory Coast democracy. Failure to stop him will take Ivory Coast down the path of a frenzied spiral into rock-bottom, a stateless anarchy akin to Somalia.

DECISION POINTS:- HELP 'W' SELL HIS BOOKS, BUY A COPY TODAY!

Icheoku does not know whether 'W' himself has even read the book he claimed to have written; conservatives and Republicans usually are not known for being people who cavort with letters. But you can still do these folks a favor by helping get this print out of circulation; just buy one and file it away if you must. Make it your decision point to make GW's Decision Points' go away!

TOM DELAY, GUILTY AS CHARGED AND GOING AWAY FOR LIFE?

The hammer has been hammered! An Austin Texas jury found Republican Tom Delay guilty of money laundering and conspiracy to commit money laundering; arising from a scheme he hatched which illegally funneled corporate money to Texas Republican candidates in 2002. The former House chief whip faces up to life in prison on the money laundering charge alone. Icheoku asks Tom, where is thy hammer to hammer the jury of your peers to let you free!

BABANGIDA LOSES AGAIN, THIS TIME TO NORTHERN ELDERS ATIKU ABUBAKAR

This time, his northern Hausa/Fulani/Gwari brothers and whatever they have up there in the north rejected him as being too toxic for the North as well as Nigeria. They told him that his presidential aspiration is DOA and there is no use trying; and choose Atiku instead. Icheoku said with this final nail on his coffin driven home by his kinsmen, Babangida should now go into a shameful retirement to think seriously how he became such a damaged goods in Nigeria and the worst political leper in Nigeria who nobody wants to deal with, including his northern brothers. Icheoku says, well done northern elders forum for finally retiring this devil incarnate.

"I AM A VICTIM OF JUNE 12TH" - IBRAHIM BADAMOSI BABANGIDA.

Icheoku says to Nigerians, please do not mind the conman. Once again he is deploying a reverse psychology, playing his well known mind game against the entire populace; but hey, Babangida is no Hannibal Lectern! By his latest assertion, Babangida is trying to rewrite history and remake the story of millions of Nigerian victims who suffered untold state hardship and victimization during his despotic rule. In his jaundiced eyes, these Nigerians were the aggressors and himself was the one wronged and who actually needs all the sympathetic ears that can be mustered in Nigeria. Icheoku says, please do not join this man's train to hallucination land as it is a one-way ticket of no return. Just tune off and let the evil-one rot in his soon to implode delusional quest to mount the saddle again! Never again Babangida!

DON'T ASK, DON'T TELL MAKES AMERICA NUTS, REPEAL THE DARN THING NOW!

Just repeal the darn 'don't ask, don't tell' and let freedom reign. Icheoku says there should be equality of love for all service men and women since they shed their blood equally and together!. Icheoku is standing up for equality!

LISA MURKOWSKI SENATE WIN, ANOTHER DEFEAT FOR TEA PARTY SARAH PALIN.

Alaskans seem to have finally ended their romance with their beauty queen, air-head Sarah Palin as they said thanks but no to her endorsed senate candidate, Joe Miller. They instead sent Lisa Murkowitz right back to Washington DC as a write-in candidate; a smack in the mouth for Sarah Palin and her fellow Tea Party anarchists who want to roll over the progress of the last several years. Icheoku says, with crazy Joe now out of the way, Rand Paul still remains the lone ranger in the senate and could be easily contained. Borrowing from Lisa herself, 'doesn't it feel like wow!'

GENERAL MOTORS GOES PUBLIC AGAIN, OBAMA'S STIMULUS PACKAGE AT WORK!

Good news and a defeat to all those naysayers who had dismissed President Barack Obama's economic recovery stimulus package. Some of them even demanded that GM and other American motor companies be allowed to fail; but today the president has proved them wrong with his bold bailout program for the auto industry. Icheoku says, congratulations GM and we expect more improved and better vehicles out of your plants.

CHARLES RANGEL FOUND IN VIOLATION OF ETHICS RULES.

Charles Rangel violated House rules with financial misconduct, brought it discredit and accordingly will be punished; so ruled the ethics committee. Icheoku sympathizes with the 80 year old Democrat from Harlem New York but takes reservation at some of the lame excuses or defense he tried to come up with.

PRINCE WILLIAMS MAKES IT OFFICIAL.

Yes the prince will marry a commoner, the soon to become princess Kate Meddleton. Kate must be one lucky woman to have stolen the heart of prince William of Wales and will soon be in line to become the future queen of England. Like the other William said, William Shakespeare that is, it all lies in the stars! Congratulations William and Kate; and Icheoku joins the rest of the world in looking forward to your next year's wedding.

GOVERNOR SPENDS 700 MILLION NAIRA EACH MONTH ON HIS SECURITY?

Mind-boggling indeed! Icheoku asks, really how much does this governor's life worth that he should be spending the peoples' money to protect it in this manner? By the way who and what is he protecting himself from - the same people he made mad by misappropriating their money. Icheoku therefore calls on Governor Theodore Orji of Abia State, Nigeria, to show some remorse and forthwith, cease and desist from this inexplicable wastage of the peoples money. But an aside, why does this governor still need such human protection when he already made a pact with the devil - 'Alusi Okija' or did he also renege on his blood promise to the deity and now needs protection from the deity too?

CINDY McCAIN, WEARS THE PANTS IN SENATOR JOHN McCAIN'S HOUSE?

But hey, why not and what does anyone expect with her hundreds of millions of dollars. Icheoku is sure that behind closed doors the beer heiress calls the shot in what goes on in their family; so it is quite understandable when she takes a different position from her husband in the ongoing debate on 'don't ask, don't tell' in the military. Icheoku says, go Cindy!

ADAMU CIROMA IS A NUT-JOB, WANTS NIGERIA TO DISINTEGRATE?

"If they are still working on such a platform, then we should actually be discussing how to dismember this country, because this consensus candidate thing doesn’t make sense. Their action is moving from a political thing to a national warfare.’’ Doyin Okupe berating Ciroma for his search for a consensus northern presidential candidate. Icheoku adds, but can the South smell what Ciroma's north is cooking - a Nigeria with a northern president or nothing at all including a Nigeria that once was!

NIGERIANS, DO THEY THINK SO FUTURISTIC TOO?

"It is special to watch something being built that later generations will have" - Danute Gordzelewska of Swiebdozin Poland, contributor to the Jesus statue project, speaking admirably of the 'Christ the King' statue just completed in his town . Icheoku asks, how many Nigerians, especially their bankrupt leadership, ever think in that realm - doing something to bequeath the yet unborn future Nigerians?

OBASANJO SMACKED DOWN!

The revolution has begun and not even a former president could be spared. Kudos to the attacker!

A WORD ON THE MARBLE

'Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools speak because they have to say something.' - Food for thought!

SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS ARE THE NEW WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS!

They over-ran Texas Rangers 4 - 1 to win the trophy, 54 years since their first. Icheoku says, congratulations the city by the bay and their GIANTS!

BRAZIL JOINS LEAGUE OF FEMALE PRESIDENT COUNTRIES!

Dilma Rousseff is the new president of Brazil. Icheoku says with her victory the feminist political incursion and take over of South America is alive and well. Argentina's Cristina Kirchner, Chile's former Michelle Bachelet and now Brazil's Dilma Rousseff . Icheoku can only had, power to the daughters of Eve and lets hope the people of the Amazon river knows best. Congratulations Dilma!

ALEXANDRIA MILLS, MISS AMERICA IS NEW MISS WORLD!

MLB WORLD SERIES

It is San Francisco Giants 2, Texas Rangers 0

PAUL THE SOCCER-OCTOPUS IS DEAD!

He was 100% accurate with its predictions in the last FIFA World cup 2010 in South Africa even to the final champion, Spain. Regrettably the Nostradamus of the Marine Kingdom is no more; Octopus Paul died of old age related infirmities; Paul was two and half years old. Icheoku says the world is now bereaved of its Octo-Soccer but good enough we still have our Octo-Mom, Nadia Suleman!

THE HAMMER FINALLY GETS HIS DAY IN COURT!

Tom Delay, the man who took partisanship to a new height before his own financial scandal brought him down from his Olympian height as Republican House Leader is set to confront his charges in Austin Texas. Icheoku hopes the Hammer will be nailed, so that the nail can for once take its revenge out on the hammer that is usually hammering it, get it!

ENUGU STATE COMMISSIONER KIDNAPPED!

The kidnapping saga in Enugu State continues unabated as the Commissioner for Special Duties in the Governor’s office, Mr.Sunday Chukwuani, was kidnapped by men of the kidnapping world. Icheoku says politicians in Nigerian are busy seeking and creating political and economic advantages for themselves, stealing money as they look the other way while hoodlums terrorize the citizenry. What a great pity indeed!

BEHOLD ONE OF THE INDEPENDENCE DAY BOMBER, CHARLES OKAH!

His name is Charles Okah, a brother to the other turncoat turn in the flesh terrorist, Henry Okah. It would seem that terrorism is part of their family's business. So to the literature of terrorists, we have shoe-bomber, domestic-bomber, diaper-bomber, plane-bomber, wtc-bomber, embassy-bomber, women and children bomber and now the mother of all bombing, independence day bomber. The father that produced these domestic terrorists must have drank too much local gin (ogogoro) on the respective days they were consummated before approaching their mother.

SAUDI ARABIA GAY KILLER PRINCE GETS LIFE!

Prince Saud bin Abdulaziz Bin Nasir al Saud was sentenced to life imprisonment for murdering his gay lover and companion. Hopefully he will be met behind the walls of his new big house residence with more domineering gay men. Thank you British jury for not being sucked in by his pedigree which would have exculpated him were it in the Kingdom of Saud.

EXTREMISM MUST BE STOPPED, VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS!

American Talibans are plotting a take over of the country and with it our freedoms. If you stay out the election they win, so do not let them. Vote November 2, VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS!

THE VICTIM OF AN ABUSIVE SAUDI ARABIA KILLER PRINCE.

Bandar Abdullah Abdulaziz, defenseless and awe-struck at his prince, merely tried to duck as his domineering master and prince pummeled him and later strangled him to death. Luckily enough they were not in Riyadh but London and the killer-prince stands now convicted of murder. Icheoku hopes he will do his full time for the crime and not be swapped for oil or BAE defense contracts or released in the same despicable manner as Libya's PAN-AM terrorist bomber.

GAY SAUDI ARABIA KILLER PRINCE, CONVICTED FOR KILLING GAY LOVER.

Prince Saud bin Abdulaziz Bin Nasir al Saud who strangled his gay lover Bandar Abdullah Abdulaziz was convicted of murder by a London court. Icheoku hopes that the royal family of Saud will not try to muscle their killer prince out of British custody using their oil as a weapon of diplomacy. The tragedy of this incident is that it gives the world a peek on what lesser mortals go through in some of these privileges enclaves like Saudi Arabia.

SARAKI'S PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDACY REJECTED BY THE NORTH!

The presidential aspiration of Governor Bukola Saraki of Kwara State has hit the rocks. Information reaching Icheoku has it that the northern front which is trying to present a common northern candidate to challenge President Jonathan in 2011 ruled him out of contention because he is not northern enough? According to their resolution, Saraki does not speak Hausa language and hence cannot be presented to represent the north. Icheoku says really? An Orwellian case of all northerners are equal but some are more equal than the others. Since when has fluency in Hausa language become a prerequisite for the presidency of Nigeria? This goes to unmask the real intention and plans of these mullahs agitating for zoning system - they just want to Islamize the country and possibly force everyone to learn their language!

FAYEMI IS NOW THE NEW GOVERNOR OF EKITI STATE.

With forty out of the forty-eight months of his would have been term of office already spent by a usurper to the office, Action Congress of Nigeria's Kayode Fayemi will now serve out the remainder of his stolen mandate as elected governor of Ekit State Nigeria. The Appeal court declared him winner of the governorship election which Segun Oni in connivance with Olusegun Obasanjo had seized through a stolen mandate. Icheoku while saying congratulations, hopes that INEC will vary the time of election in Ekiti State to accommodate this lost period. This is now another episode in the revolving door that is Nigeria's elected offices as another governor has now been fired and another one hired through the ruling of the court. Judicial activism, may be; but Icheoku would have preferred they arrested Obasanjo and Iwu to explain all these anomalies of the 2007 election. A testament that whatever will be will be!

CARL PALADINO, SIMPLY TOO EXTREME FOR THE BIG APPLE!

Were it Omaha, Oklahoma or any of the little states somewhere in the south or middle of nowhere, may be. But our New York, Hell no! Definitely not a good fit for NY. He hates homosexuals and calls them names so why vote for a governor a man who will only discrimnate against fellow New Yorkers? Just reject Paladino, say no to extremism!

CHILEAN MINE RESCUE PROGRESSING VERY WELL AND AHEAD OF TIME!

Actual pull-out started for the 33 Chilean miners trapped beneath the earth at a depth of 2040 feet and for 69 days has begun. Florencio Avalos was the first to make it out to a land-up while the rest are similarly on their way out of their hell hole. Icheoku says congratulations to the rescue team who organised this deepest mine rescue of modern times; and thank God Almighty for sheltering these trapped miners while their ordeal lasted. Boy, were those guys tough, strong, brave, fired-up and ready to go!

BABS FAFUNWA, BABANGIDA'S EDUCATION MINISTER, DEAD AT 87.

Last week President Jonathan discredited him as the man who killed education in Nigeria with his 6-3-3-4 education system. Icheoku says may be such a presidential criticism was simply too much for his brittle old heart to bear and he yielded his ghost few weeks later. May his soul be rewarded according to his stewardship.

DOG EAT DOG AS NIGERIA'S MUSLIMS KILL THEIR HEAD SHEIK !

The dread Islamic terrorist squad operating in Sharia Northern Nigeria under the name of Boko Haram has struck again. This time they shot and killed an Islamic sheik, Sheik Bashir Mustapha of and in Maiduguri. Icheoku wonders whether this lunatics do not have any boundaries or at least respect for their religious heads. Yet they profess Allah; but could this Allah be supportive of this madness?

A CHINESE WINS NOBEL PEACE PRIZE.

Liu Xiaobo, the Chinese dissident who participated in the Tianamen Square massacre was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize 2010. Icheoku says congratulations and hope the communist Chinese government will get the message!

WORD ON THE MARBLE

"We are watching keenly as the drama of Nigeria unfolds, after this mad dance of macabre, we shall meet at the barricade." - Niger Delta JTR. Icheoku adds, way to go Niger Deltans; and never again shall you people be afraid of the mallams to the northern desert."

DESMOND TUTU YIELDS THE STAGE.

Archbishop Desmond Tutu of South Africa has retired from public life. According to the ever engaging archbishop, he is leaving the scene to make way for younger generation to continue from where his generation stopped. Icheoku says but unlike Babangida of Nigeria who cast aspersion on Nigerian youths as incapable of leading Nigeria, Archbishop Tutu believed in the youths of South Africa and on-the-job training of the youths and made way for them to have a way. Icheoku commends this placing of an idea above self as we wish the Archbishop a wonderful life in retirement.

BABANGIDA ON WHY HE DID NOT ATTEND INDEPENDENCE CELEBRATION?

"The frivolous spending for the celebration turned me off and as you know, it is against my principles" - Ibrahim Babangida.Icheoku queries and says, when Babangida was spending Nigerian's oil windfalls like a drunken sailor, as he rushed off to Abuja following Gideon Orkar's coup, it was then 'an acceptable form of frivolous spending' or what is Icheoku not getting or missing, assuming we understood him correctly? Damn this kettle calling a pot black.

CHARLIE, THE SMOKING CHIMP, IS DEAD!

The Mangaung zoo Bloemfontein, South Africa resident chimpanzee, world-famous for using nicotine, Charlie, has passed on. Charlie was 52 years old and most likely died of age-related natural causes except necropsy later discloses otherwise such as cancer of the lungs, being a chain-smoker? Icheoku says, may his smoky soul rest in peace.

BOLIVIA'S PRESIDENT EVO MORALES UN-SPORTSMANLY BEHAVIOR.

It was thuggish, it was demeaning of a leader and above all it was thuggish. President Evo Morales of Bolivia intentionally kicked an opponent in the groin in a friendly soccer match. Icheoku wonders what leader leads by such aggressive example and why the president was not given a red card for such un-sportsman foul or was it a case of a president who is above any reproach. His behavior is simply unacceptable and it does not matter the underlying reason - a leader should be above board and lead by example.

BABANGIDA'S NO-SHOW AT CELEBRATION, SUSPICIOUS!

"We are shocked that the IBB campaign organization would use the blood of the victims of the bomb blast to advertise the credentials of IBB. We all know what the jury's decision on those credentials are. And indeed, if security is the forte of their candidate as so shamelessly advertised, many Nigerians who lost their lives in the IBB years would be living today." - Sully Abu, Director, Media and Publicity, Jonathan/Sambo Presidential campaign organisation

TARGETING BABANGIDA, JONATHAN ARRESTS RAYMOND DOKPESI.

Icheoku says, no more political intolerance, intimidation or a lord of Manor who must not have any opposition. First President Jonathan said the bomb was not by MEND, but by outside terrorists and now it is Raymond Dokpesi, oh Babangida. Icheoku asks is Raymond Dokpesi and Babangida what outside terrorists look like? Icheoku says produce the evidence or stop the witch-hunting.

IBRAHIM BABANGIDA'S NEW REFRAIN, WHY HE CANNOT BE TRUSTED!

"The late president Umaru Yar ‘Adua served for one term and I will complete the second term and thereafter 'any person from any other other region can take over." - Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida speaking at Dutse, Jigawa State. Icheoku asks when did Babangida's previous stand that South East Igbos will produce the president in 2015 change to "any person from any other region." This toothy-monster of Minna cannot just be trusted and only an imbecile takes him for his words.

NIGERIA'S 50TH INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION BOMBED!

As a present for a wasteful extravaganza that was Nigeria@50 and when there is really "nothing worth celebrating after 50 years of failure", the people gathered in Abuja Nigeria received a bomb-blast, courtesy of MEND. Icheoku condemns violence of any kind but says the bomb made a nonsense of the entire Nigeria security agencies who failed to detect a bomb-laden car packed so near to the venue of the celebration. But is there really a tangible thing worth celebrating in a 50 year Nigeria's life?

RICK SANCHEZ OF CNN'S RICK LIST WHO FORGOT HE WAS NOT WHITE, FIRED!

Icheoku says the kite that thought he is an eagle just discovered that eagles know their own kind. CNN just fired him for calling John Stewart a bigot. Icheoku says but John Stewart has called other people some other bad names and does not see the big deal of one expressing an opinion; but hey this is America and minorities is expected to know their place. Whites, Browns, Yellows, Arabs and Blacks are different gnome genre used to differentiate people with certain privileges and Rick forgot he is an 'ordinary' brown not entitled to take on a white-Jew?

PDP'S ZONING ARRANGEMENT REDEFINED?

"You cannot be talking about zoning when your dad has nominated your sister to be the next governor of Kwara State after your own eight year term as the governor. Further the zoning arrangement in the PDP excludes the presidency since you cannot zone what you do not have." - President Goodluck Jonathan. Icheoku asks, but does the PDP or the president already have the other stuff which they zone or it it a case of he who the cap fits? Did Mr President just twist the facts to suit his template; otherwise isn't it a laughable proposition that a party would zone every other positions in the party and country but not the presidency? Way to go for Nigeria's slick Nath!

BABANGIDA, A DOUBLE AGENT FOR THE ISLAMIC WORLD AND A FRONT FOR OIC?

A vote for Babangida is a vote to Islamize Nigeria. A 'mission accomplished' for the man who surreptitiously took a secular Nigeria into OIC without consulting other non Muslim Nigerians. Now the same Islamic forces headed by Moummar Gaddafi of Libya is sponsoring his bid back to power. Icheoku wonders if such foreign interference is not a criminal behavior for which an accomplice, Babangida, should be held accountable for cavorting with the enemy. A known anarchist and destabilizing force in Africa who had once called for dividing of Nigeria into two countries - one for Christians and the other for Muslims. Icheoku wonders if Gaddafi wants to see his divided Nigeria come to pass through his sponsorship of the evil-genius Babangida against all odds.

ATTAHIRU JEGA'S TAKE ON NIGERIAN LEADERSHIP!

"Nigeria had within the last fifty years, suffered in the hands of a band of short sighted and greedy leaders so called. They generally lacked vision, focus, and selflessness. They are unimaginably corrupt, they are greedy, they are vindictive, they are reckless and in many fundamental aspects, senseless." - Attahiru Jega, INEC Chairman.

LINSEY LOHAN, PARIS HILTON'S RIVAL DRUGGIE!

She needs a Brittany Spears treatment - just declare her a minor for purposes of managing her affairs and let her father become her guardian ad litem. That way her access to excess funds with which she indulges her bad habits will be drained and in return she will get her life back. Until then, the world may wake up one day to a Lindsey Lohan that is no more, dead of OD.

ONE TERRORIST IS MORE THAN ENOUGH REASON!

"The Americans should not occupy the entire Middle East...bomb wedding parties...annihilate an entire village just because one terrorist is hiding there." - President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran. Icheoku says, then let them pony up the terrorist and save themselves from further raining down of bombs.

IRAN'S ANTI-REASON PHILOSOPHY, REJECTS CARROT AND STICK APPROACH!

"The era of following a policy of carrot and stick is over. Even such words are insulting to nations. It's only good for cowboys and those of retarded people. Definitely it has no effect. They issued resolutions as talks were underway, still, we are ready for talks."Icheoku says what a case of a midget poking his finger at the world; and if sanctions are not working, why the sudden call for talks, after Iran had severally in the past and before the sanction rebuffed the world's every effort at making it see reason.

BABANGIDA DOES NOT GET IT, NIGERIANS DESERVES AN APOLOGY!

“I told Nigerians that it was wrong; I told Nigerians Kill me, don’t kill anybody…This elections was annulled 17 years ago and what I keep telling Nigerians is for Christ sake let us move forward. I thought people should understand that when you accept responsibility, he is saying blame it on me, not on any other person" - Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida in an interview with CNN. Icheoku says if only this toothy monster of Minna understands the beef Nigerians have with him, he will know that there is a great difference between 'taking responsibility' and saying that "you are sorry"; especially for taking 150 million Nigerians for the ride that was June 12th. Babangida, Icheoku says, Nigerians cannot and will never move forward or on from you until either you drop dead or you explain in detail why you did what you did - annulling their election, and sufficiently apologize for it, get it Dumber!

TERESA LEWIS, EXECUTED FOR ORDERING HIT ON HUSBAND AND SON OVER LIFE INSURANCE PROCEEDS!

Just for $250, 000 in life Insurance proceeds, this woman laid to waste the lives of her husband and step-son. Icheoku says if a crime ever deserved a death penalty, this sure did as the Jezebel sold out for a mere pittance. Now you know so when next you take out life insurance know how to domicile your beneficiary or better still keep it secret!

WALTER BREUNING, WORLD OLDEST MAN MARKS HIS 114TH BIRTHDAY!

Icheoku says congratulation to the Methusaleh of our time, Walter Breuning of Great Falls Montana USA on his 114th birthday anniversary. Please old one, can you please divulge to the world the secret ingredient of your longevity.

NUHU RIBADU, ANOTHER MALLAM WHO WANTS TO BE PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA?

What a pity that the situation in Nigeria has gotten so bad now that every Dick, Tom and Harry wants to be president. Imagine former police man Nuhu Ribadu too? Icheoku says, oh hell NO!

KWARA STATE PEOPLE IN BONDED SERVITUDE TO THE SARAKIS!

TEA PARTY EXPRESS SLOGAN?

"Just vote them out!" Icheoku says with such an absolute slogan and without any option for an exception where performance is apparent, the Sarah Palin led Tea Party has assumed the toga of extreme fringe lunatic fundamentalists in America politics. It is not as if they are offering an alternative or any feasible solution out of the bind which the country is in, no, as reactionaries, they just want to sweep everyone away. But Americans know better that all these Tea Party fanatics parading around and toppling more rational people everywhere are not what the present day economic and political situational development in America needs and therefore must vote in November to retain sanity in the system as well as to sustain the tempo of literate responsible governance!

"I dabbled into witchcraft, I hung around people who were doing these things. I'm not making this stuff up. I know what they told me they do; one of my first dates with a witch was on a satanic altar, and I didn't know it. I mean, there's little blood there and stuff like that. We went to a movie and then had a little midnight picnic on a satanic altar." Icheoku says, now that you have heard it from the horse's mouth, it is now left for you Delaware people to decide who to represent you in the US Senate; but Icheoku would rather it is not a witch or a witchcraft sympathizer!

ANTI ROMA-PEOPLE FRENCH BANS MUSLIM NIQAB IN PUBLIC PLACES!

As the French Senate bans masquerades parading on the streets of France as Muslim women, Icheoku says it is about time! If these guys love these sacs so much why did they leave the Middle East in the first place. Moreso Middle East imprison Westerners for wearing bikins and minis in their homelands yet their people want to inundate the West with these robe-entombed women running around Western streets with its attendant security risks and risk of injury from stumbling on the garments. It is just becoming too much these their "in your face" moves; except they will open up the Middle East for western culture too.

IBRAHIM BABANGIDA IS A MONSTER, A BLOODY VILLAIN AND UNELECTABLE!

"He is no role model. He is no statesman. Locally, he is pariah and a liability. Internationally, he is a featherweight and will never overcome the infamy his praise-singers claim to be unimportant" - Sonale Olumhense, writing of Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida. Icheoku says be-eni; the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

EBITU UKIWE ADVISES NIGERIANS NOT TO ELECT BABANGIDA!

"To jumpstart the political redefinition of Nigeria, Nigerians should avoid electing those who have inflicted poverty and underdevelopment on the country through avarice and nepotism because such people can never be loyal to their country and their followers." - Ebitu Ukiwe.Icheoku says Ebitu just delivered a side-blow to his former boss and the man who frustrated him out of the military, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida, concerning the later's still-birth presidential ambition. Way to go and we urge all Nigerians to speak up now against Babangida or forever maintain their peace of quietude!

SAUDI ARABIANS NEED AND DESERVE FREEDOM FROM THE HOUSE OF SAUD!

All manners of freedom - of sexual preferences, of women driving cars and living their lives, of religion including the right for Christians to practice their religion in the Kingdom and build churches in Mecca, Medina and Riyadh if they want, of alcoholic beverages consumption, of political opinions and affiliations including elections etc. Icheoku says it is about time the Kingdom of Saud is called to order and not allowed to continue getting away with emasculation of freedom on the alter of oil security for the West. America should demands of their oily friends in Riyadh that they become freedom friendly and tolerant and open up the Kingdom for other people not from the ruling family.

FREEDOM WAS ATTACKED ON 9/11

Those jackass Saudi Arabia Islamic terrorists tried but failed to suppress freedom on September 11, 2001. The brave one, America told them, nope, not under our watch. That we cannot cower at knuckle-head cowards who use terror as an instrument of propaganda. Icheoku says, thank you America for standing up and facing down this menace.

GENERAL IHEJIRIKA, NIGERIA'S POST WAR FIRST COAS OF IGBO EXTRACTION

As President Goodluck Jonathan trades one Igbo security chief for another, Icheoku says what a political chess-game abracadabra? President Jonathan sacked IGP Onovo and in order to placate the Igbos, appointed Major General Onyeabo Ihejirika as the new Chief of Army Staff. Icheoku only hopes that the usual banana peel which has been afflicting Igbo public officials and which just swept IGP Onovo away will spare the new COAS. Chief of Army Staff Ihejirika is from Ovim, Isuikwuato Local Government Area of Abia State and was commissioned into the Nigerian army in 1977. Congratulations COAS Ihejirika.

LIFE AFTER ALL THE WORLDLY PURSUITS!

After all said and done, when the body finally assumes room temperature and long after the pangs of death has waned; with rigor mortis exacting firm control of the body, we are all going to be a particle of dust each; and with some dint of luck might somehow stand out to be remembered as a once lived speck in a jaded society of humanity. - Ebekuo

FIDEL CASTRO'S CUBA REGRETS COMMUNISM, SAYS IT DOESN'T WORK!

The strong man of Cuba, and at 80 plus still going strong, Fidel Castro has finally turned the corner and admitted for the very first time that he took Cubans on a long ride of a discredited communism. Fidel Castro owed up to what the whole world including Russia and China have since known that state welfarism based on all for the state does not work and never worked. Capitalism despite its flaws is still the best economic philosophy of any nation or people. But per adventure it is a mark of greatness for one to admit his flaws and mistakes; and on this note Icheoku hails Fidel for admitting to a mistake made by his revolutionary regime - Viva Castro, Viva Fidel and Viva Cuba!

HOW MUCH DOES ONE REALLY NEED IN LIFE OR TO BE HAPPY?

We are prisoners to our possessions, so free yourself today, learn to share and give. It is very uplifting! - Ebekuo.

ISRAELI FOREIGN MINISTER AVIGDOR LIEBERMAN, NOT ON TEAM-PEACE?

According to him the recently resumed Middle East peace talks between his country and Palestine is creating too much expectation and the one year goal of achieving peace is not possible. Icheoku says a house divided cannot stand so it is that Team Israeli is negotiating with a divided objective. But why is Netanyahu still keeping a minister who is so opposed to his peace effort and playing into the hands of Hamas, Hezbollah and other anti-peace Arabs who have chided the new effort as a journey to nowhere; or is it a case of Catch-22 damn it if you retain him and damn it if you fire him; but appearnace still matters and Israel would be seen to be making the best effort without a recalcitrant minister who publicly disagrees with his Prime Minister and President in this manner.

PARIS HILTON, A CRACK-HEAD DESPERATELY CRYING FOR HELP?

No one seem to be listening or hearing the cry for help by this hotel heiress until she wounds up dead as a door knob. It has happened before with some celebrities and children of society's high ups; and Icheoku would not be surprise to wake up one day with the sad news that Paris Hilton turned up somewhere, having assumed room temperature. But it is not yet late and all hands must be on deck to save this party-gal from herself and turn her away from the current destructive path which she is travelling on! May be Paris could benefit from a Brittany Spears styled treatment of parental tough-love therapy.

NIGERIA IS BROKE (BANKRUPT) AND CANNOT PAY ITS DEBTS?

Look no further for the evidence that Nigeria's financial situation is dire and all her creditors should better be wary. Icheoku asks what does Nigeria have to show for the expenditure of $19.54billion just between 2007 and 2010; during which the Excess Crude Account (ECA) which held $20 billion in 2007 when Obasanjo left office has been depleted to a mere $460 as at August 2010. What band of thieves have descended on Nigeria in this way that its resources should be so cannibalized and with nothing to show for it, as trade-off. Please when will that army man who can clean the Augean stable, rise and hold these thieving mongrels accountable?

KARA DIOGUARDI, JUDGE-LESS JUDGE, FINALLY FIRED FROM AMERICAN IDOL?

The judge who cannot judge, the judge without any sense of judgment and the reason why American Idol tanked in rating has finally been given the boot. She came, she saw and she destroyed a once highly rated show; made so popular with commentators commenting throughout the week until the next Tuesday the stellar drama put up by the teary eyed Paula Abdul, who provided a regular side-show with her rambling and cries to temper Simon Cowel's cold acerbic jabs. Suddenly out of nowhere and for no useful purpose came one Kara and American Idol never was the same again. Hopefully it can still be salvaged, provided Paula Abdul is brought back and Simon Cowel persuaded to continue spitting his missiles. But whatever the case regarding Simon Cowel, Icheoku has vowed never to tune in again to American Idol until Paula Abdul returns. What a belated good riddance of a no-use fourth judge, a woman that destroyed American Idol, Kara DioGuardi.

THE EARTH UNDERNEATH NEW ZEALAND, QUAKES AT 7.4 MAGNITUDE!

Our hearts goes out to the people left homeless and injured from the 7.4 magnitude earth shaker in New Zealand. New Zealanders shall rebuild and build a better earthquake resistant structures for the future.

HILLARY CLINTON, THE HARDEST WORKING MADAM SECRETARY OF STATE, NEEDS A NEW MAKEUP ARTIST?

That she is a hard-worker is not in doubt and so also is her steely resolve to get accomplished whatever she set her mind at. Icheoku is a fan, especially since the successful resolution of the last presidential primaries rough-edges. She has been well taken care of by her make-up team; but not today as her face was unevenly over powdered with her neck line left totally untouched. Icheoku wants Madam Secretary to call her make-up artist to order or have them fired or replaced for presenting her face in such a discolored form at the Israeli-Palestine reconvened peace treaty.

PARIS HILTON BANNED FROM WYNN RESORTS LAS VEGAS!

The hard partying heiress of Hilton Hotel chains aka American party gal extraordinaire, Paris Hilton, has been banned from partying at Wynn Hotels and Resorts Las Vegas. She was bursted in the hotel for suspected marijuana and cocaine use and possession, which the hotel felt was a bad pr for its image. Icheoku says big deal, since the party animal can always take her cash-money and panache elsewhere in the city of sin. But hey, why didn't Wynn just let what happened in Vegas to remain in Vegas instead of now banning Paris from her oxygen of life - partying. Is anyone out there still wondering why the raging drug war in Mexico and elsewhere, it is to feed the drug appetites of the Paris Hiltons of America!

ALASKAN TEA PARTY UPSET, A REQUIEM FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY?

As the Tea Party-endorsed candidate Joe Miller defeats the Republican establishment candidate, the incumbent Alaska Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski, in the Alaskan Republican Party Primaries, Icheoku says it is now obvious that the Republican Party has been hijacked by the insurgent Tea Partiers; and from the ashes of the now "defunct" Republican Party has arisen the Tea Party, the authentic challenger to the Democrats this fall election in November.

IS BABANGIDA A GAY-NIGERIAN, YET TO COME OUT OF THE CLOSET?

The evil-one and self styled evil genius of Nigeria, the ruthless dictator who killed Dele Giwa and annulled Nigeria's freest election of June 12th, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida appears womanish? Could it be that the rumor of his being a gay-Nigerian is true as he continues to look so effeminate with every passing day especially since the death of his wife Maryam; and his decision not to remarry ever since does not help the rumor either. But whatever be the explanation for his chubbiness, Babangida is certainly looking fat, chubby and unmanly. However he must never be allowed to kill and maim Nigerians again, not in 2011, not any other time whatsoever. He is evil and evil must never be allowed to rule Nigerians again. Say Amen, Nigerians!

NIGERIANS INCAPABLE OF RISING ABOVE SELF!

"We are Americans, part of something bigger than ourselves" - President George H. Bush. Icheoku asks, can Nigerians ever say this of themselves, "that they are Nigerians and part of something bigger than themselves?" If yes, why have the Nigerian leaders not yet subsumed themselves under the civil society's authority; but are just stealing for themselves at the expense of the greater society's good.

BEHEADING, NO LONGER AN EXCLUSIVE ACT OF TERROR AND/OR PRESERVE OF AL-QUEIDA!

An American from St Augustine Florida, 51-year old Dale Rose learnt too well from Al-Queida, the horrific act of decapitation. He decapitated and dismembered his girlfriend, 48-year-old Jan Dunn Keller spreading her body parts all over the place with some found wrapped in a tarp and left in their garage while others were found buried in a bush nearby.Icheoku says just like this portal kicked against the recent Manhattan 'Ground Zero' Mosque resistance and the broad-brushing of all Muslims as 9/11 terrorists; this insane act by an apparently deranged American does not represent every American. Therefore it is imperative that we as a people do proportionately distinguish and isolate every given case and treat it for what it is - a nutcase!

A NIGERIAN AKAATA DIES IN ORJI UZOR KALU'S USA HOME!

Late Chinwe Masi who gave up the ghost while entertaining her paramour Orji Uzor Kalu at his Potomac Montgomery County Maryland USA home. Icheoku says although no foul play has been dictated, but when an over-stayed in America Naija gal who looks every bit a party-animal cavorts with Orji Uzor Kalu who single-handedly made a detained Alusi-Okija worshipper governor of Abia State, things are bound to go awry. But hey, at least the lady did not suffer death; may her soul rest in peace!

TIGER WOODS, LAMENTS HIS DIVORCE?

"I think it's just more sadness. Because I don't think you ever go into a marriage looking to get divorced. That's the thing. That's why it is sad." - Tiger Woods.Icheoku admonishes TW if only he had thought about this line before letting all those cheap bimbos sample his whiny; may be he would not now be the loneliest man out there left in the cold by a distraught ex-wife!

KEN MEHLMAN, ANOTHER REPUBLICAN CLOSETED GAY-MAN STEPS OUT!

A former President George Bush campaign manager and later Republican Party chairman Ken Mehlman waited for 43 years to finally admit that he is a homosexual. Icheoku says if only these hypocritical Republicans could heed the advise of our Lord and Master Jesus Christ who surmarized it thus, "thou shall not judge!"

TIGER WOODS WHIPPED?

Icheoku says, you have heard about pistol whipping, but not until the infamous Cadillac SUV crash did Americans hear about golf-club whipping; as former wife Elin Nodegren rammed him into a crash that led to his crashing out of a life made in heaven!

A $39 MILLION GUBERNATORIAL TICKET ECSTASY IN FLORIDA?

As Healthcare millionaire Rick Scott buys the bragging right to fly his Republican Party's governorship ticket in Florida's next election; Icheoku wonders out loud what kind of healthcare he provided for the needy or was he of the school that denied or cut corners in order to amass such a fortune. At a price of 39 million dollars for the right to run for governor of Florida under the Republican Party, Icheoku cannot but begin to question what really is the value of public service in America?

SAHARA REPORTER DEFINES CASH-JOURNALISM IN NIGERIA.

'A true journalist does not accept gratification for his news because it puts monetary value on the news. A journalist that accepts gifts in exchange for reporting the news is a journalist that sells the news. A Nigerian journalism founded on a midnight quid-pro quo visit to the news source, based on the principle of cash-for-coverage of the news, is a journalism that sells Nigerians into slavery.' - SaharaReporters, berating the midnight visit of some Nigerian journalists to Babangida's Minna residence in exchange for a 10 million Naira "transportation fees". Icheoku says, these Judas Iscariot journalists of Nigeria suddenly forgot that the Babangida killed Dele Giwa was once one of them - a journalist?

AN AFRICAN DAMSEL NAMED YEMISI

She got the pose, the beauty and the brains; so this African maiden is surely all encompassing!

JUNE 12TH, BABANGIDA DOES NOT GET IT?

“Only Abiola and his family deserve an apology over the annulment of the June 12, 1993 presidential election won by Chief MKO Abiola." - Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida.Icheoku says, this toothy mallam of Minna fails to understand what June 12th means and represents. Babangida woefully failed to comprehend why Nigerians are mad as hell against him for the annulment since it destroyed a sacred mandate which they gave to MKO Abiola o hold on their behalf. Evil genius Babangida, Icheoku says to you, just in case you still don't get it; June 12th annulment is an affront on the whole Nigerians and to them all do you owe an apology; get it dumber!

"Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida, Muhammadu Buhari and Atiku Abubakar are expired leaders. - Arewa Progressive Union. Icheoku says, gaskiya; and like any other expired drug or thing, they belong in the landfill.

PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN, PANDERING TO BABANGIDA?

"Babangida had done so much to uplift this country and therefore deserves to be celebrated." - President Goodluck Jonathan. Icheoku asks, could Mr. President please tell Nigerians what constitutes "the so much" that Babangida did to uplift Nigeria that he deserves to be celebrated and not jailed? Anyway, either President Jonathan is scared of facing down IBB for the 2011 presidential primaries or he is pleading with him to go easy on him. What a pitiful shame indeed, Mr President.

FORMER ILLINOIS GOVERNOR 'BLAGO-HAIR' ACQUITTED?

He was accused of haggling and trying to auction the senate seat of former Senator Barack Obama to the highest bidder. However the jury of his peers in the windy city of Chicago found otherwise and acquitted him of all but one count of the charges - of lying to Federal agents. Blagovich got some good lawyers indeed based on what the Feds had him on tape as saying. Icheoku says, possibly the hair played some role in influencing the decision or hypnotized the only juror that held out on all other counts in the 11-1 hung jury.

BABANGIDA DECLARES FOR PRESIDENCY, SAYS I'M BACK!

“…you don’t expect me to run for president, at age 70, come to you and beg you to vote for me. I think the older one gets the more you think about a lot of things. For me, it is not a do-or-die affair.” - Ibrahim Badamosi Babangidain a 2008 interview. Icheoku says may the real evil genius now stand up and explain to Nigerians which of the faces of Janus is the real one! But hey, a people gets the type of leadership it deserves; so the onus lies on Nigerians to decide who will be their president in 2011. But for Icheoku and friends, anyone but the evil-one will be preferred!

PAKISTANI CHILD TELLS FLIES, KNOCK YOURSELVES OUT!

No, he is not dead but just in a deep sleep. A flood victim of Pakistan's own 'Katrina' dozes off un-fazed as legion of flies crawl inside his nostrils, and feeding therein.The child from Azakhel near Nowshera Pakistan was in such a deep sleep, following a devastating flood that rendered his community desolate and despondent, that flies is the least of his worries. Icheoku says it seems the child just told the flies, 'I have already seen worse; so be my guest and knock yourselves out! Now begin to count your blessings that your child is not one of those victim children as this; in country busy with banding Nuclear weapon, while turning a blind eye on the level of want and starvation prevalent therein. Icheoku says, this child is a victim of Pakistan's Katrina of 'Noah's biblical magnitude. So sleep on brave child.

RUSH LIMBAUGH AT LAST, FINDS A REAL RUSH-BABY, HIS HOUSE WIFE!

Icheoku says, now that conservative talker extra-ordinaire, Rush Limbaugh has found himself a real Rush-baby, would he still find some love for other 'Rush-babies' out there? Our advise to these 'Rush-babies', it is time to move on since the real deal has taken her rightful place in Rush's head and heart. Icheoku says, congrats El-Rushbo for finally giving up your testicles to be locked up in a testicle lock-box.

LAURA SCHLESSINGER, INSENSITIVE TO RACIALLY CHARGED WORD?

Icheoku understands the subliminal message regularly being telegraphed by such conservative megaphones as Dr. Laura; periodically stoking the racial tension in America. Now, Laura said that the social context of using the word should be understandable; to which Icheoku asks, is there any circumstance whatsoever where Laura Schlessinger would understand being called a BITCH? Now you know how a black American feels being called a NIGGER!

GAY-DOM IN CALIFORNIA, PUT ON A SHORT-HOLD!

Judge Vaugh Walker orders gay marriage to resume, but not until Wednesday August 18, 2010. This is to enable time for any possible appeal to be filed by the anti-gay group of the same-sex divide. Icheoku says with this development, the floodgates of marriage will soon be thrown open to homosexuals, taking away the happiness in these bred's life; as what gay-dom previously brought together, the impending "I do" shall ultimately put asunder; but hey, welcome to the club of agonizing lonely heartaches of marriage, league of homosexuals!

NAOMI CAMPBELL, CHARLES TAYLOR'S 'BLOOD-DIAMOND' LADY?

She is ageless as a pearl. Her beauty is without blemish. She has dated so many money bags; and it seems that Charles Taylor tried but made the mistake of wooing her with uncut diamonds - those 'dirty stones!'

WWE LINDA McMAHON SMACKS-DOWN REPUBLICAN OPPONENTS!

Linda McMahon of the World Wrestling Entertainment has 'smacked down' her opponents to clinch the ticket for the Republican Party's senatorial candidacy in Connecticut. Icheoku asks the Democratic Party's opponent Blumethal, "can you smell what the WWE lady is cooking" for November elections?

THE SYNERGY OF CO-HABITATION, MAN AND HIS BEST FRIEND?

These bikers show what real living together is all about; as the baboon hitches a ride on a motorcycle with some three other homo-sapiens! Icheoku asks, but where are their helmets?

BABANGIDA, YOU MUST ANSWER THOSE FIVE QUESTIONS!

“Before you start asking me question, I want to tell you my rules. I have five no-questions-areas, so, don’t ask me anything related to such areas: one, the issue of June 12 election; another is anything about Dele Giwa, zoning and so on.” - Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida. Icheoku says someone needs to remind this toothy-monster of Minna that his days as a despotic dictator who must be obeyed is since over; and that he is no longer running the show. He has no choice in this matter and if he wants Nigerians' votes he must come and get it; and to get it, he must first clarify the damaging issues of June 12th election annulment as well as who ordered the hit on Dele Giwa. Until he satisfactorily answers these questions, they will keep coming back to haunt him; and if he can't stand the heat, may be it is about time he got out of the kitchen and rop out of the 2011 presidential race.

BUHARI PREDICTS A NIGERIA DISINTEGRATED?

“How can we be so rich and paradoxically so poor? We are a rich nation, poor people. This is a disgrace to the Nigerian leadership. 2011 is critical for the country. There may be no Nigeria thereafter.” - Islamist Muhammadu Buhari; who also denied that he does not know why Nigerians regard him as a fundamentalist? Icheoku says, Buhari, in case you have forgotten, you murdered Batholomew Owo and three others for alleged drug offenses based on a retroactive decree. That is fundamentalism defined, Saudi Arabian Wahabbi style; and that makes you an Islamic zealot, get it skeletal one?

OBASANJO LACKS BACKBONE AND SHOULD NEVER BE TRUSTED?

'Olusegun Obasanjo lacks real courage and should never be trusted for betraying Charles Taylor when he reneged on an agreement 'not to do anything to Taylor' only to turn around later to hand him over to his persecutors at The Hague. - Fani Kayode.Icheoku says betrayal is a common trait among the people of the South Western Nigeria so it is not out of place for Obasanjo to live up to the billing. Moreso why did it take Fani this long to confirm what everyone already knows or suspects. According to Fani, Taylor is "a man betrayed" and his betrayal by Obasanjo and co was 'the betrayal of the century.'

KENYA'S NEW CONSTITUTION, MEANINGLESS?

Icheoku says what Kenya and every other African country needs is a magnanimous and civilized leadership who knows when to throw in the towel. President Mwai Kibakiis the problem of and in Kenya and not the constitution; since another one of his type might still trample upon the "new papers and ink" that was put together and voted for in their referendum and refuse to leave office when voted out. So get it, African leaderships need a complete rebirth!

HELLO ELENA KAGAN, THE 112TH UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT JUDGE!

Icheoku says congratulation to Elena Kagan on her confirmation as a judge associate of the United States Supreme Court. Another feather to President Barack Obama, whose political deftness has now seen his second nominee to the highest court in the land confirmed by 63-37 votes. With a Black and now Hispanic and a Jew in the membership of the previously all White-men's club, the Supreme Court is getting diversified. Icheoku hopes that the next nominee shall be an Asian for completeness.

CONNECTICUT BEER DISTRIBUTORSHIP SHOOTING RAMPAGE.

"I killed the racists that were bothering me." - Omar Thornton, victim of workplace racism and the alleged gunman who lost it and sent 8 people to go meet their maker, before he killed himself. Icheoku asks, could this qualify as his "dying declaration" of the real motive for his action and not just that he was "a disgruntled employee?"

BABANGIDA'S FOOT-IN-THE-MOUTH STATEMENT.

"Democracy is the smoothest form of government in the world." - Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida. Icheoku says, yet he overthrew a democratically elected President Shehu Shagari governemnt in 1983 and also annulled MKO Abiola June 12 1993 democratic election. Now can the real slim-shady Babangida just stand up?

LADY GAGA GOES BUTT NAKED WITH VANITY FAIR!

"I have this weird thing that if I sleep with someone they're going to take my creativity from me through my vagina." - Lady GaGa

BABANGIDA WOULD IF HE COULD, HURT NIGERIAN MASSES AGAIN!

”Babangida annulled the freest and fairest election in the history of this country and this generated series of crisis. He said there were various issues surrounding that decision, but up till this moment, he has not been able to clear himself. If he had carried out that decision based on the opinion of certain individuals against the wish of the Nigerian people, it is very possible that he would hurt the Nigerian masses again through the decision of those few individuals. - Razak Olokooba, Secretary-General, Coalition of Oodua Self Determination Group (COSEG) Icheoku says be`eni; finally the sons and daughters of Oduduwa have woken up to honor the name of their forebears; and also pay IBB back in his own counterfeit coin!

NKANU NATIVE GIVING IGBO PEOPLE AND ENUGU STATE A BAD NAME?

An armed robbery suspect who was injured during a police shoot-out in Abeokuta and who later offered some villagers N1.8million in protection fees for a safe house and/or passage is from Akpugo-Nkanu, Enugu State, Nigeria! The 20-year -old suspect, Onyeka Ani, was apprehended in Mawuko village, Obafemi-Owode Local Government Area, Abeokuta, Ogun State while trying to escape. Icheoku says, just when the people of Enugu State thought that the death of 'Ngeleomu' has ended this area's involvement in dare-devilry, here comes another one of its product, terrorizing his victims in far away Ogun State. What a shameful ambassador he is. A case of changing tides when a criminal was the one begging for mercy and offering monetary reward to avoid harm in a country where their ruthlessness and lack of compassion is beyond pale. He possibly deserved the vigilante justice for opening his mouth in this way and asking for what his kind will not give to the people - leniency!

KILLER ROBERT GLEASON DESIRES THE DEATH PENALTY?

He loves to kill and also wants to die. Already on death row for a murder he committed, Robert Gleason warned prosecutors that he will kill again if not given the death penalty for strangling his former cellmate. True to his promise, Gleason again murdered another prison inmate. Icheoku says, why wont the authorities simply give this deranged beast his heart desires or is his skin-color in the way?

MICHAEL GREEN, ANOTHER VICTIM OF 'JUSTICE FOR THEM' AMERICAN POLICY?

A victim of over-zealous police attempt to solve a crime fast and an innocent man who fits the 'color-scheme' template of the usual suspect is railroaded into prison and for 27 long years for a crime he did not commit. So the next time you see 'the other ones' angry, instead of merely observing that they are angry, try to understand why they are angry? And just in case you are still feigning ignorance, black American men are angry because of the injustice that is wrought against them without ceasing, just like the latest case of Michael Green's unjust 27 years imprisonment. The next time before you adjudge a black-man angry, instead of just saying they are angry, try to find out what other injustice that has been wrought against him that he is angry about. The real tragedy of Michael Green's latest ordeal is that there are still thousands of black American men similarly incarcerated for crimes they did not commit. Icheoku prays the same providence that helped secure justice for Michael Green will similarly smile at them some day. Michael Green it is painful but you must move on.

ISLAMIST MUHAMMADU BUHARI'S NEW THEME-SONG?

“The Nigeria of this era should be made of a community that tasks its leaders on their past performance and how they will improve upon that. It is out of date to bore the people with where one comes from, the language he speaks or his mode of worship." - Muhammadu Buhari. Icheoku says, finally at last the skinny army man from Katsina have experienced some epiphany. Free at last, free at last, free at last is Nigeria's former head of a military junta, Muhammadu Buhari, who murdered Barthlomeow Owo and two others for drug possession based on a retroactive decree!

STRAIGHT TALK EXPRESS, OUT WITH McCAIN, IN COMES CAMERON!

Icheoku commends the new British Prime Minister Dave Cameron for keeping it real and calling it as it is without the niceties of political correctness. It is a fact that the present Middle East quagmire as is is unsustainable and also when a wall is built around a people restricting their movement drastically, it qualifies as a prison - physical confinement. It is also a fact that Pakistan is not fully committed to eradicating terrorism from their soil and may also be exporting same to its neighboring countries of India and Afghanistan? Icheoku approves of the new British foreign policy initiative as truthful and precise; and geared towards finding real solution to what have defied so many other initiatives. Way to go, Cameron!

LESBIAN TALK-SHOW HOST ELLEN DEGENERES DUMPS AMERICAN IDOL!

"It was hard for me to judge people and sometimes hurt their feelings." With those words, American Idol newest judge Ellen Degeneres calls it quit from her judgeship of the once mesmerizing talent-hunt show. Many of us previously avid fans stopped watching American Idol the moment Paula Abdul was canned from her judge seat. Icheoku says Ellen's move will further send the rating of the show down the drain; but that the rating could still be resuscitated once Kara DioGuardi who brings nothing to the show is removed; and Paula Abdul cajoled back to continue providing the audience with her special side-shows of incoherent ramblings and tearing up. American Idol producers, got it?

BABANGIDA'S RETURN IS OMINOUS!

"The return of IBB represents morbidity- the harbinger of death of the nation.” - Dr Joe Okei-Odumakin

THE SILENT CONVERSATION!

ARIZONA ADVISED BY THE COURT TO KNOW ITS BOUNDS!

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer was instructed on the exclusivity of Federal legislative list and that a State cannot suo moto dabble into a purely federal jurisdictional matter such as immigration. The district court told the governor that she has no right to enforce Arizona anti-immigration law wholesale as written because it sort to preempt a federal power. But being the butt-head she is, she has promised her fellow tea-party Arizonans that the state will appeal. Icheoku says, if only this Jezebel will devote some little time to read the constitution instead of wasting Arizona's time and resources chasing the proverbial unicorn!

AMERICA TOOK BRITAIN HOSTAGE?

'Britain was a prisoner on America's train of war to Baghdad' - Hans Blix, United Nations Weapons of Mass Destruction Inspector to Iraq.

FRANCE FINALLY WAKES UP TO REALITY OF AL-QUEIDA, DECLARES WAR!

Icheoku says it took the beheading of 78 year old French-man Michel Germaneau for France to finally get it that you don't reason with a deranged man. A war against Al-Queida which America declared and has been fighting for over a decade now; but which to the French was an over-reaction which diplomacy would have resolved? But suddenly an old French man has been beheaded and their President Nikolas Sarkozy had an epiphany that these Al-Queida lunatics admits of no reason at all; but have to be defeated, destroyed and rooted out of this earth. Icheoku says, ironically if all it takes is a national's life, may be Al-Queida should also force other countries such as China and Russia into the war instead of their standing on the fence trying to pontificate on the justiciability or otherwise of the campaign. What a belated Frenchy wake-up call.

PRESIDENT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA, NOT BLACK ENOUGH?

So many folks, reacting to the recent treatment of USDA Shirley Sherrods, once again regurgitated the time-worn cliche` that the president is not black enough or fully down with the struggle; otherwise his reaction would have been somewhat much different? To these folks, Icheoku wants you to know that were the president of a darker shade, there would never have been any colored president in "their" White House to begin with; so you must cut down on your losses and accept the half loaf which is better than no loaf at all. Get it folks!

CHELSEA CLINTON WEDS MARC MEZVINSKY ON JULY 31ST, 2010.

As the former little daddy's girl, Chelsea Clinton becomes a full fledged woman and says 'Yes I do' to her man Marc Mezvinsky on July 31 at Astor Court estate in Rhinebeck, Upstate New York, overlooking the Hudson River, Icheoku have always wondered what it takes to marry a president's daughter; whose mother is also a Secretary of States? What did Mark say to Chelsea to secure her hand in marriage or was it a case of somewhat arranged marriage where someone somewhere introduced someone to someone with necessary approval sought and received? But seriously speaking, it must be a great challenge marrying such a lady especially when Chelsea was born in government house and grew up in government houses; never knowing what a real life is like. But hey, Marc Mezvinsky cannot be any ordinary Joe Blow and so, Icheoku wishes the couple all the best.

EMIR OF BAUCHI DIES IN A FOREIGN HOSPITAL?

The Emir of Bauchi and chairman of Bauchi State Council of Emirs, Alhaji Suleiman Adamu Jumba, is dead. He died in Cairo-Egypt, aged 77years. Icheoku, while commiserating with the people of Bauchi State on their loss, decries the penchant of Nigerian leaders to die abroad in foreign hospitals. Instead of ensuring that commensurate health care facilities are provided for everybody in Nigeria, they prefer instead to go overseas on medical treatment and then give up the ghost there; alone and surrounded by strangers in a foreign land. But hey, whether one died on the streets of Bauchi or at the International Medical Center Cairo, Icheoku says death is death and our only wish is that there could be some change of hearts among these crop of human-beings holding sway in Nigeria. Rest in the peace of Allah Emir!

BUHARI ELBOWS BABANGIDA, INSINUATES HE IS A CRIMINAL?

"Nigerians should not to vote for corrupt leaders again because they are criminals; but should vote for people of high integrity." - Muhammadu Buhari.Icheoku says the stoic army man and Islamic fundamentalist has just thrown a low-blow at Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida since Babangida is the only past leader who is running again. Buhari inferred that Babangida is a criminal and lacks integrity; which Icheoku does not doubt since we remember vividly that Babangida, a one time alleged drug runner, overthrew his boss Buhari for planning to investigate his drug activities.

LIFE IS A STRUGGLE?

'Life is a tidal wave, so learn how to surf in order to ride it successfully.' - The Sage, Urinem

NIMACHI IHEGBORO, WHO IS THE BABY DADDY?

Icheoku is not buying the crap that this white kid is a biological child of two black Nigerian parents. It is either the mother is not coming forth with the true identity of the baby daddy or there was a callous baby-swap or mix-up at the hospital. Look at her pale-skin, blue eyes and blonde hair and albinos do not possess of this whiteman's characteristics? Also any story of genetics mutation will not sell as buyers do not exists.

ICHEOKU, BUSH-BABY COMES TO LIFE?

Growing up we used to scamper away at the story of mythical bush-babies being sighted or meowing in the neighborhood. But hey, it is just another creature of this earth. Have a happy bush-baby day!

LINDSEY LOHAN GOES TO JAIL !

Second time is always the charm as alcoholic and cocaine addict Lindsey Lohan now got more time than her 84 minutes once jail-time? This time the substance-abusing actress got 90 days for violating her parole and will most likely serve just 14 days, due to jail "over-crowding?" She was partying in Paris and missed her court date. Ms. Lohan now join the league of Hollywood jail gals such as Paris Hilton and Nicole Ritchie. Icheoku however decries the reduced prison term as too sentimental and says, were she of another kind, most likely the sheriff would have squeezed out some space for her to serve out the full duration of the sentence. But hey, different strokes for different folks is the name of the game and we are talking about equality under the law? Moreover, Lindsey Lohan was also "too good" to be photographed with her handcuffs or while being taken into jail-custody since she does not fit the profile of atypical jailbird known to America!

BABANGIDA IS LOSING IT, HIS MIND THAT IS.

“I give credit to both the police and the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ), for their steadfastness. It is good news. Journalists in this country are doing wonderfully. That is why in this family we love journalists, and we appreciate the good work they are doing.” - Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida.Icheoku asks, what profession was late Dele Giwa again that Babangida blew him away with parcel bomb without bathing an eyelid? If Babangida's family love for journalists is such that he had for Dele Giwa, then let every journalist in Nigeria run to the hills for safety and as fast as their legs can carry them.

WHERE IS NKEM 'OSUOFIA' OWO?

The whole world of Nigeria (Igbo) movies fans are anxious about the whereabout of comedian extra-ordinaire Nkem Owo who has disappeared from the screens for a very long time now. Icheoku asks, is there anybody with information on this guy out there; please let us know what has become of 'Osuofia" since his kidnapping incident?

Candidate Samuel Ogbu Nwobodo Ogbu on Kidnapping.

"Kidnapping in Nigeria especially the South East is a function of societal decay and gross unemployment in the area; (which have driven some unscrupulous youths into the underworld business and in some cases, just to stay afloat?)" - Samuel Ogbu Nwobodo Ogbu, Attorney and Entrepreneur, Candidate for Nigeria House of Representatives, Nkanu East and West Federal constituency, Enugu State, Nigeria.

HAPPY 92ND BIRTHDAY, MANDELA!

Dr. Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela, the pride of black Africa and an embodiment of resilience is 92 years today, July 18, 2010. A man who somewhat compares with Jesus Christ in his largeness of a forgiving heart, who just like Jesus forgave 'them for they do not know what they are doing', also forgave the then racist criminal apartheid government of South Africa for the cold hand they dealt him, vaporising 27 years of his youthful life. He overcame, became president and is 92 today, what a thumbing of the nose on his traducers! Hurray! Icheoku felicitates with this one of a kind special human being, a saint and the only man to have really lived what he preaches. Nelson Mandela, the world especially black Africans are very proud to have you. Hurray! Happy birthday Daddy Africa!

ATTORNEY SAM OGBU NWOBODO OGBU, RUNNING TO EFFECT SOME CHANGE!

"In our motherland, the threshold has been been so lowered that many little laughable achievements are elevated to something monumental" - Sam Ogbu, Candidate for House of Representative, Nkanu East and West Federal Constituency of Enugu State, Nigeria

THE KING TAKES HIS KINGDOM TO MIAMI

It is official, King LeBron James has left Cleveland Cavaliers for Miami Heats. Icheoku wishes King James a championship ring at Florida. Goodluck James.

ORJI UZOR KALU RETURNS TO PDP?

A move which time has since come and a position which Icheoku had canvassed for a very long time now. The opposition in Nigeria is very weak, not serious and practically non-existent; hence the PDP is still the best hope and platform for any politician aspiring to any office in the land. Kalu's chances at the presidency will be best served in the PDP, hence his move is well informed and Icheoku approves. Further, irrespective of whatever naysayers may have against his candidacy, Icheoku still believes that Orji Uzor Kalu is the strongest Igbo candidate for the presidency of Nigeria, the peculiar brigandage political environment considered! But is the Igbo's crab-mentality going to let them support Kalu, only time will tell; as they may become then more politically matured.

NWODO SAYS ZONING IS DEAD SINCE 1999 AND BURIED IN PDP?

In fulfillment of the condition subsequent to his appointment as chairman of the PDP, Dr. Okwesilieze Nwodo has now cleared the way for President Goodluck Jonathan to run in 2011. He has sacrificed the gentleman's agreement of the ruling party as he jettisoned their zoning arrangement. The real losers, as always, is the Igbo people who now have lost the only real opportunity, zoning, that would have made it possible for them to secure the presidency. In the words of Nwodo, “Yes, I said to BBC and I repeat to you again that zoning in PDP has been jettisoned. There is no zoning on ground right now. Absolutely, there is no zoning." Icheoku says, at least he is a better politician than the former Ogbulafor whose loud mouth cost him the chair. So Mr. Chairman, when would Babangida be banned or suspended from the PDP to completely pave the way for Jonathan's cake-walk in 2011?

OBASANJO SLEEPING ON DUTY, HE SNORED AWAY WHILE OTHERS KEPT WATCH!

Baba-Iyabo, Olusegun Obasanjo dozed away at a recent event he attended. Icheoku asks, may be this was his modus operandi while his infamous 8 years of despotic rule lasted - sleeping while the business of the country suffered? Little wonder nothing much was achieved during that unfortunate betrayal and dashed hope of many things Nigeria! OBJ please wake up!

THE CHEATING URUGUAY NATIONAL TEAM IS OUT OF THE WORLD CUP!

What goes around comes around, as the villain of the FIFA World Cup South Africa 2010, Uruguayan national team has been kicked out of the tournament. Netherlands out-scored them 3-2 and their second goal came on the niche of time. Icheoku says when their Luis Suarez turned himself into a goalkeeper to deny Ghana their victory and thereby robbed it of its rightfully earned semi-final position, little did they know they too will soon be shown the way home and out of the competition. What FIFA refused and could not do, the Netherlanders have done. Icheoku says, congratulations Netherlands for kicking Uruguay's butt.

ICHEOKU, THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND VISITS NEW YORK!

At 83, still looking radiant and resplendent; but who would not be if their only job description is spending the Sterlings and shaking hands? Anyway, God save the Queen as she pushes to surpass her mother, the Queen Mother's record of 100 plus years - longevity is in their gene pool. Icheoku says, to the Queen of England, welcome!

ICHEOKU, PRESIDENT JONATHAN CAPITULATES TO FIFA?

Icheoku says the sudden about turn by President Goodluck Jonathan of Nigeria regarding the 2year ban he placed on the flopping Eagles is cowardice! His failure to stand firm against FIFA, which has more to lose had the stand-off continued, is pitiful; as neither the lame explanation of an apologetic NFF or his being a listening president does not make much sense as he had both options prior and could have waited to get them before the rash decision from which he has now retracted and reversed himself. There is a thin line between indecisiveness and populism and the president is increasingly becoming a boarder line case. Icheoku bemoans this characterized weakness of President Jonathan, and says if the president cannot stand firm on its decision and caved in to ordinary FIFA's ultimatum, how then can anyone expect him to survive the onslaught of a moving tornado, which IBB's impending operation take over Aso Rock will be! Please Mr. President, next time try and sleep over your thoughts before announcing them as decisions; you now speak for 150million Nigerians and every word from your mouth should carry the weight of the 150million Nigerians not subject to knee-jerk reversals or .swallowing them back. So, before you speak or decide on something next time, ensure it is well thought out and thoroughly.

BABANGIDA 'ADMITS' TO THE MURDER OF DELE GIWA THROUGH A PROXY?

Icheoku says now that the evil one IBB has 'admitted' complicity with the murder of Dele Giwa and since there is no statute of limitation for murder, may be the first order of business and the proper thing to do now is to put him in handcuffs and march him off to Kirirkiri prison to await trial. That way, instead of the nuisance of his presidential run, he will be busy trying to save his neck from the hangman's noose. President Jonathan, the ball is now in your court, using Hazeem Gbolarumi, leader of a dead-on-arrival Babaginda’s campaign's word as evidence, who named the callous and dastardly death by parcel-bomb of the foremost fearless journalist as one of the six cardinal sins of Babangida? How about that Nigerians for a start in putting the toothy monster of Minna away forever and for good. That way Nigerians will outfox the foxy bastard and tell him that Maradona is no longer in form nor playing and that his Team Argentina were handed a 4-0 defeat by new generation Germans at FIFA World Cup South Africa 2010. Enough of this provocative Piranha, IBB.

URUGUAYAN LUIS SUAREZ HAND OF SHAMEFUL DESPERATION!

Icheoku warns that whatever victory the Uruguayans and their cheating maggot Luis Suarez (right) may or may not record henceforth at South Africa FIFA World Cup 2010 remains tainted. They should have been gone from the competition but for their robbing of the Ghana Blackstars their well deserved victory. This SOB Luis Suarez has by his shameless act, joined the list of infamy of those who can do anything for anything; and who callously believe that the end justifies the means. But if only FIFA got the backbone to keep them honest, the likes of Luis Suarez will not dare.

CAUCASIAN TAX, TANNING TO COST YOU MORE?

According to talk-radio rabble-rouser and agent provocateur, Rush Limbaugh, the Tanning Tax which came into effect today, July 1, 2010, is an evil racist plot by the Obama administration specifically targeted to penalize white people for getting their temporary melanin? Icheoku asks, is there also its equivalence wherein the Micheal Jackson and Sammy Sosa of the black/colored America, who hate their blackness and want to getter whiter, are taxed in the spirit of fairness and to take wind out of Rush's argument?

ICHEOKU, LIFE IS WHAT IT IS - BLAME GAMES?

"In games of this intensity, it is understandable that some frustrations are evident. At present, it may be that the frustrations are not sufficiently educated to be well contained." - Carlos Queiroz, Team Portugal's coach, dissing Ronaldo over a comment he made suggesting the coach is responsible for their 1-0 loss to Spain.

MR. $180 MILLION DOLLARS SOCCER CONTRACT RONALDO IS NOT HAPPY?

Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro is a sad-man, possibly suffering from depression over his team Portugal's loss to Spain? His sorrow is such that he would give up all his riches for the loss to be to be simply a mere dream from where he hopes to wake up to reality. In the strongest outward manifestation of the pinning of his soul, the soccer maestro complained out loud:- "I feel a broken man, completely disconsolate, frustrated and an unimaginable sadness. ... I am a human being and like any human being I suffer and I have the right to suffer alone." Icheoku consoles Ronaldo to take it easy on himself, it is just a game and his side did not lose woefully. They played very well, only that Spain was more business-like in getting that lone goal. There will always be the next time - just four years down the road? Go do something fun Ronaldo, just anything, like scuba diving with some hammer-head sharks; or sky-jumping or streaking under a clear blue night sky somewhere exotic!

LARRY KING SIGNS OFF AFTER 25 YEARS?

Mr. Suspenders and CNN Larry King Live host is calling it quit after 25 years hosting the show and after 52 years on television. Icheoku says, this will possibly give give him additional time to marry and divorce many more wives? Larry King is just 73 years young and Viagra super-charged?

ICHEOKU, NIGERIA DEFINED?

'Nigeria is like a horse-drawn carriage which, instead of one horse, is being drawn by three horses, each tethered in different directions. The result is a country in dire need of direction and in a thug of war with itself - conflicted, confused, stationary and without any meaning movement in any direction. In the words of Baba Fela Anikulapo Kuti, Nigeria is all motion and no movement' - EbekuoNigeria. Icheoku says, ezi-okwu-bu-ndu, gaskiya, be`e-eni, true, the whole truth and nothing but the truth!

PRESIDENT UMARU YAR'ADUA'S GRAVE, WHAT IS LIFE REALLY WORTH?

Icheoku acquired this photograph of the burial place of the former late President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua of Nigeria from very authoritative source. From his former palatial Aso Rock presidential palace to this tiny 6x3x2.5 shallow grave, the question is, what is life's struggles to be this and that really worth? Icheoku reminds you that the preacher in Ecclesiastes answered this question when he said, vanity of vanities, all is vanity! Nothing, Nada, Zilch.

ICHEOKU, THE LEGISLATIVE BRAWL?

The Nigeria House of Thugs aka Representatives should not upbraid themselves so much just because they truly lived their lives for once; after-all what decency is expected from a bunch of brigands of questionable characters and who lack integrity. Moreover, legislators the world over from time to time, exchange fist-cuffs; so what the big deal if Nigeria learnt. Icheoku says, it is therefore not only in Nigeria that such happenstance takes place periodically; it is not a novelty, so don't over-sweat the small stuff Nigerians. Your (un) elected thuggish representatives fighting and not legislating is no big deal, so get over it.

ICHEOKU, BABANGIDA IS POLITICALLY DEFICIENT?

“Babangida does however have a huge problem of political deficit with me, and with the nation, and that is the albatross that constitutes his problem.” - Professor Wole Soyinka

WHY WESTERN WORLD LIKE PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN?

President Goodluck Jonathan is thefirst educated president and/or head of state Nigeria ever had; and a PhD presupposes that the holder knows what the heck he is talking about, so they cut him a slack of a benefit of the doubt. Secondly, President Goodluck Jonathan is a native son of the soil of the Niger Delta, the real owners of the proverbial Nigerian black gold, so access through him is free from any encumbrances! Now you know why Jonathan will remain president of Nigeria long after 2011; and if Babangida becomes so much of a problem, he will be solved either through tea or a plane ride?

PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN FIRES BACK AT ETHNIC NORTH?

“We are a country where our leaders tend to play tribal sentiments, saying I am from the South-South; I am from North-west; I am North, I am South, I am a Muslim and I am a Christian. All these are selfish motives to make people who probably cannot compete with others…to use these sentiments." - President Goodluck Jonathan. Icheoku adds, and what did the north even benefit from the 38 years their fellow mallams Balewa, Gowon, Muritala, Shagari, BUhari, Babangida, Abacha, Abdulsalam and Yar'Adua were in power? Yet some northern vampires led by the evil one IBB are once again stoking the northern tribal sentiments to wake up unneeded sentiments against the south. The north is even their own worst enemies - Muritala overthrew Gowon, Dimka killed Muritala, Buhari overthrew Shagari, Babangida overthrew Buhari, Babangida massacred Zango Kataf northerners, Babngida killed Mamman Vasta, Gideon Orkar etc; so which north are we talking about and for which this agitation now martured? Nothing, nada, zilch.

AUSTRALIA HAS A NEW PRIME MINISTER!

Julia Gillard will be the first female Prime Minister of Australia; closely following in the foot-steps of former British Prime Minister, Iron-lady Margaret Thatcher. Icheoku says, congratulations Madam Prime Minister.

ICHEOKU, EXPECTATIONS FROM THE NEW INEC CHAIRMAN?

“I would like to be remembered as the person who led the INEC that conducted the freest, fairest and most credible elections in the history of Nigeria.” -
